INTRODUCTORY 


This  outline  of  the  growth  and  achievements  of  Delta  Delta 
Delta  has  been  collected  and  compiled  from  the  historical  matter 
written  and  collected  by  the  first  Grand  Historian  of  the  frater- 
nity, Sara  Ida  Shaw  Martin  (1897-1900),  the  reports  transmitted 
by  Grand  Historian,  Lela  M.  Klampe  (1900-1902),  the  fifteen 
volumes  of  the  Trident,  the  various  directories,  chapter  letters 
and  Convention  Reports  issued,  the  Inter-Sorority  Conference 
Reports  and  special  chapter  reports  for  1903-4,  1904-5  and 
1905-6,  received  in  answer  to  specific  sets  of  questions  issued  by 
the  present  historian.  Many  personal  interviews  with  the 
founders  and  early  members  of  Alpha  and  the  charter  members 
of  the  various  other  chapters  and  with  grand  council  members 
"have  been  helpful  in  information  and  suggestions.  The  author 
has  not  labored  under  the  mpression  that  this  is  a  contribution  to 
literature.  The  intention  has  been  to  compile  a  record  and  a 
reference  book. 

No  space  has  been  taken  for  words  of  self-praise  or  gratula- 
tion  for  it  has  been  thought  that  the  achievements  of  Tri  Delta 
will  speak  for  themselves  to  all  who  may  care  to  read. 

While  a  task  of  many  days,  interrupted  sometimes  for 
months  by  family  cares,  yet  the  compilation  of  this  history  has 
nevertheless  been  a  source  of  pleasure  to  one  who  has  worked  in 
the  ranks  of  the  fraternity  since  the  third  year  of  its  history. 

All  members  and  officers  called  upon  for  assistance  have 
loyally  responded  and  to  each  and  all  of  them  is  extended  most 
sincere  gratitude. 

From  the  founders  and  earliest  grand  officers  to  the  present 
council,  there  has  not  been  one  who  has  not  responded  cheerfully 
to  frequent  and  troublesome  questioning. 

To  the  Editing  Committee,  R.  Louise  Fitch,  Editor  of  the 
Trident  and  Amy  Olgen  Parmelee,  Grand  President,  the  present 
Historian  owes  a  double  debt,  first  of  all  for  constant  inspiration 
and  eager  interest  and  second  for  entire  readiness  to  render  all 
manner  of  aid  and  services  outside  of  the  technical  duties  de-

volving  upon  them.  The  interest  and  counsel  of  her  husband, 
Frank  E.  Priddy,  a  member  of  Sigma  Alpha  Epsilon,  have  also 
been  drawn  upon  freely  and  often. 

Kindly  indulgence  is  asked  for  the  multitude  of  errors  that 
must  be  made  by  one  who  attempts  to  compile  nearly  twenty 
years  of  history  from  such  scattered  records  as  were  to  be  com- 
manded. More  time  and  more  labor  could  have  brought  this  to 
greater  perfection  but  as  time  passes  history  is  making  and  al- 
ready enough  of  labor  upon  it  has  been  added  to  a  busy  life  to 
equal  the  working  hours  of  a  year. 

May  these  humble  efforts  open  the  way  for  some  future 
historian  to  perfect  the  task  and  also  to  inspire  in  all  Tri  Deltas 
who  read  an  abiding  resolution  to  make  a  history  worthy  of  pres- 
ervation. 

In  the  bonds  of  Delta  Delta  Delta, 

Bessie  Leach  Priddy,

FIRST  TR1  DELTA  POEM  RECORDED 


Vena  Written  by  Sarah  Ida  Shaw,  '89.  and  Publi*hed  November,   1891,  in 
The  Trident,  Volume   I ,  Number  I . 


There  was  tumult  in  the  ocean 

On  a  time  some  years  ago, 

As  the  sea-god's  heralds  hastened 

On  their  errands  to  and  fro; 

For  the  mighty  god  Poseidon 

Had  sent  forth  a  stern  decree 

That   his   council   should   be   gathered 

In  his  palace  'neath  the  sea. 

For  his  messenger  had  brought  him 

From  the  blooming  lands  above, 

On   Thanksgiving  Eve  a   letter 

Full  of  greetings  and  of  love, 

Which  read  somewhat  as  here  follows 

"Dear  Poseidon :     We  have  heard 

Of  your  wisdom,  of  your  greatness, 

Of  your  kindness.     In  a  word, 

We  would  fain  become  your  children, 

We  would  fain  your  subjects  be. 

If  you  only  would  instruct  us 

In  that  old  Greek  mystery 

Which  has  come  adown  the  ages, 

From  a  time  when  men  were  wise. 

When  they  knew  the  heart  of  nature, 

Held  communion  with  skies, 

And  divined  the  hidden  meaning 

Of  each  star  whose  constant  light 

Was  a  beacon  to  the  sailor 

As  he  journeyed  in  the  night. 

We  are  only  college  maidens 

But  we  all  desire  to  know 

Of  these  wonders.     So  expect  us 

In  your  palace  there  below. 

Nine  o'clock's  the  time  for  calling 

In  this  nation  of  the  free, 

So  expect  us  at  the  bell  stroke. 

Yours,  most  truly,  Anne  A.  B." 

Well,  there  was  a  grand  reception, 

And  a  baqnuet  and  a — well, 

You  will  never  be  the  wiser, 

For  we  promised  not  to  tell. 

Only  this,  perhaps  I'll  mention, 

That  the  conclave  of  the  sage 

Then  unanimously  voted : 

"Since  the  maidens  were  of  age, 


(15) 


16  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Knew  exactly  what  they  wanted, 
Spoke  the  Greek  with  fluent  grace, 
It  were  better,  then,  to  put  them 
With  the  wonders  face  to  face, 
Lest,  amid  the  strides  of  progress, 
An  electric  shock  might  come 
And  destroy  the  sacred  record, 
Not  slowly  one  by  one, 
But  without  a  note  of  warning, 
As  had  happened  once  before, 
When  a  cablegram  sent  eastward 
Threw  them  senseless  on  the  floor." 
And  the  great  sea-dog  assented : 
By  his  hand  he  led  them  forth 
To  his  temple  great,  majestic, 
On  an  island  toward  the  north ; 
Here  he  showed  them  in  the  heavens 
Stars— the  Alpha,  Theta,  Phi, 
And  he  told  them  of  their  power 
Over  human  destiny. 
And  he  gave  them  to  their  keeping, 
"Be  ye  wise,"  he  said,  "and  know 
With  these  helpers  ye  shall  conquer 
In  your  struggles  here  below. 
Take  this  Crescent,  it  shall  guide  you, 
And  this  Trident,  it  has  power, — 
It  will  call  me  to  your  succor 
When  the  stormy  clouds  do  lower; 
It  shall  still  the  troubled  waters, 
All  the  clouds  shall  pass  away, 
While  the  Stars  and  Crescent  ever 
Shall  come  forth  to  show  the  way." 
Then  he  ceased;  for  o'er  the  waters 
Came  his  Tritons,  bold  and  free, 
Bearing  in  their  midst  a  casket 
Fraught   with    wondrous    mystery. 
This  he  ope'd,  and  on  a  sudden 
All  the  place  was  filled  with  light, 
And  the  great  Tritonic  chorus 
Raised  their  voices  in  the  night, 
Till  the  waves  of  ocean  thundered 
'Mid  the  wondrous  melody. 
"Once  again,"  they  sang  exultant, 
"Once  again,  ye  Deltas  three, 
Have  you  come  to  bless  the  nations, 
Will  you  brighten  every  heart, 
From  the  one  who  bears  your  symbol, 
Joy  shall  nevermore  depart." 
Then  the  maidens  thanked  Poseidon 
For  the  wondrous  mystery, 
He  entrusted  to  their  keeping, 
In  his  temple  by  the  sea, 
And  in  token  of  his  kindness 
They  now  wear  the  Deltas  three, 
With  the  Crescent  and  the  Trident, 
And  the  Alpha  Theta  Phi.

FOUNDING  OF 
DELTA  DELTA  DELTA 


FOREWORD 

You  are  not  asked,  gentle  reader,  with  noiseless  tread  and 
averted  gaze,  to  wend  an  enquiring  journey  back  into  the  mys- 
tic shadows,  where  the  receding  views  of  a  pre-historic  night  re- 
veal but  the  border  lines  of  myths  and  legends.  Neither  a  knowl- 
edge of  the  Dyonisian  Fraternity,  discovered  by  the  Greek  when  he 
journeyed  from  Attica  to  Asia  Minor,  nor  of  the  Masonic  broth- 
erhood, either  building  from  the  rifted  rock  a  Solomon's  Temple 
or  from  this  ancient  story  a  powerful  modern  order,  are  neces- 
sary to  an  understanding  of  the  rise  of  the  American  College  fra- 
ternity system. 

Neither  is  it  necessary  to  go  to  the  College  of  William  & 
Mary,  in  Independence  year,  with  its  Phi  Beta  Kappa  (Dec.  5, 
1776),  whose  key  is  now  but  an  honorary  badge;  nor  again  to 
those  who  fifty  years  later  at  old  Union  copied  that  society 
(Kappa  Alpha,  1825— Sigmi  Phi,  1827,  Delta  Phi,  1827)  :  nor 
on  the  other  hand,  must  it  be  attempted  as  is  customary,  to  seek 
out  from  the  existing  list  of  thirty  odd  more  or  less  successful 
men's  societies  some  particular  one  in  order  to  explain  the  origin 
and  existence  of  Greek  letter  societies  among  American  college 
women. 

The  inherent  desire  of  the  entire  race  for  congenial  society, 
the  loyalty  typical  of  woman,  and  the  innate  love  of  culture  and 
refinement  characteristic  of  the  student  mind,  male  or  female, 
offer  in  themselves  sufficient  explanation  of  the  fact  that,  almost 
co-eval  with  the  presence  of  woman  in  the  colleges  and  univer- 
sities, these  societies  began  to  exist. 

Neither  Eleusinian  Rites,  nor  Rosicrucian  Mysteries,  nor 
the  legends  of  Greek,  Latin,  Celt  or  Teuton  were  necessary  for 
their  inspiration  and  propagation.  Their  causes,  their  aims,  and 
their  results  are  for  progress  in  social,  material,  intellectual  and 
spiritual  ways.    It  has  made  little  difference  whether  the  Kite  or

the  Key,  the  Arrow  or  the  Anchor,  or  one  of  a  half  dozen  or  more 
other  symbols  have  flashed  a  rival  light  to  the  brilliancy  of  the 
Stars  and  Crescent ;  each  band  has  met  its  failures  and  its  suc- 
cesses as  pilgrims  to  a  common  goal,  a  land  of  better  conditions 
and  better  living  for  all. 

Environment. 

In  the  development  of  character,  companions  and  environ 
ment  are  of  prime  importance  and  to  well  understand  the  origin 
and  growth  of  Delta  Delta  Delta,  the  locating  of  her  predecessors 
and  rivals  is  not  a  superfluous  task.  Kappa  Alpha  Theta  was 
founded  at  De  Pauw  University,  Greencastle,  Ind.,  Jan.  27,  1870 ; 
Kappa  Kappa  Gamma  at  Monmouth  College,  Monmouth,  111., 
Oct.  13,  1870 ;  Alpha  Phi,  at  Syracuse  University,  Syracuse,  N. 
Y.,  Oct.  20,  1872 ;  Delta  Gamma  at  Louis  School,  Oxford,  Miss., 
Jan.  2,  1874 ;  Gamma  Phi  Beta  at  Syracuse  University,  Syracuse, 
N.  Y.,  Nov.  11,  1874.  All  of  these  were  preceded  by  the  I.  C. 
Sorosis  founded  April  28,  1867,  at  Monmouth  College,  Mon- 
mouth, 111.,  which  added  "Pi  Beta  Phi"  to  its  name  in  1883, 
and  dropped  "I.  C."  in  1888,  and  with  that  change  remodeled  its 
customs  to  conform  with  those  of  other  Greek  Letter  societies. 
In  the  fall  of  1888,  the  active  chapter  roll  of  these  societies 
stood  as  follows:  K  A  0  15,  K  K  r  21,  A  T  11,  A  $  4,r  $  B 
5  and  I.  C.  Sorosis  or  n  B  <£  13. 

Naturally  as  all  of  these  societies  had  originated  west  of 
New  England,  some  of  them,  as  development  came,  began  to 
turn  covetous  eyes  toward  those  seats  of  learning  located  in  that 
territory  of  acknowledged  literary  supremacy.  Boston  Univer- 
sity and  Wellesley,  the  first,  a  champion  of  co-education,  the  sec- 
ond, a  school  for  women  alone,  were  classed  by  the  general  pub- 
lic as  being  as  significant  for  women  as  Harvard  for  men.  The 
co-educational  school  of  first  rank  being  the  desirable  field  for 
the  women's  fraternities,  the  different  societies  had  begun  to 
here  install  their  chapters.  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma  had  entered 
Boston  University  in  1882,  Alpha  Phi  in  1883  and  Gamma  Phi 
Beta  in  1887.  Although  there  was  a  good  deal  of  anti-fraternity 
sentiment  in  college  circles,  even  prominent  people  speaking 
against  such  organizations  in  chapel,  these  new  chapters  were 
soon  prosperous  and  powerful  and  immediately  took  an  import-

ant  position  in  the  work  of  their  own  national  organizations.  The 
chapter  of  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma,  in  particular,  assumed  and 
creditably  filled  a  very  authoritative  position  in  the  general  soror- 
ity policy  during  the  decade  beginning  with  1885. 

Thus,  gradually,  any  spirit  of  opposition  to  the  new  order  of 
affairs  disappeared  as  the  benefits  of  the  system  became  obvious, 
and  so  in  a  field  well  prepared  from  without  and  within  the  seed 
was  sown  that  blossomed  ultimately  into  the  suggestion  for  the 
founding  of  a  new  fraternity  for  women. 

Suggestion. 

Among  the  papers  in  the  archives  is  a  manuscript  history  of 
the  organization  of  the  first  nineteen  chapters  of  Delta  Delta 
Delta,  written  by  the  first  Grand  Historian,  one  competent  to  tell 
of  the  origin  of  its  Alpha  Chapter.  In  this  manuscript  of  Sarah 
Ida  Shaw  Martin,  Alpha  '89,  are  the  following  paragraphs : 

There  were  at  Boston  University  in  the  fall  of  1888,  four  Seniors, 
who  for  various  reasons  were  not  as  yet  allied  with  the  three  Greek  Let- 
ter societies  then  at  the  college.  These  girls  were  among  the  best  stu- 
dents, in  the  class  of  1889.  During  the  usual  commotion  attendant  upon 
the  rushing  that  fall,  one  of  these  four  girls,  disliking  the  general  at- 
mosphere, said  to  her  friend  in  deprecating  the  evident  lack  of  good  feel- 
ing, 'Let  us  found  a  society  that  shall  be  kind  alike  to  all  and  think 
more  of  the  girl's  inner  self  and  character  than  of  her  personal  appear- 
ance.' The  other  acquiesced  with  much  delight  and  so  it  came  to  pass 
that  plans  were  laid  that  very  day  as  the  two  friends  sat  in  a  quiet  nook 
among  the  terra  cotta  cushions  of  the  girls'  study,  known  as  "The  Par- 
thenon.' 

These  two  friends  and  seniors  were  Sarah  Ida  Shaw  and 
Eleanor  Dorcas  Pond,  originators  of  the  idea  of  founding  Delta 
Delta  Delta.  From  them  emanated  the  rituals,  constitutions  and 
emblems,  as  hereafter  related  and  they  were  the  moving  spirits 
in  the  organization  of  Alpha  Chapter. 

Realization. 

Later  in  the  manuscript  of  the  first  historian,  is  found : 

"I  am  afraid  those  two  young  hearts  would  have  been  very  much 
discouraged  had  they  realized  at  that  time  what  an  herculean  task  it  was 
to  start  a  national  fraternity,  but  fortunately  for  their  peace  of  mind,  and 
for  the  future  happiness  of  the  hundreds  who  have  already  learned  to 
love  the  name  of  Delta  Delta  Delta,  the  two  enthusiastic  friends  were 
unaware  of  the  fact  that  there  was  something  stupendous  about  the  task 
they  had  set  hands,  heads  and  hearts  to  accomplish.  Thev  were  working 
for  a  principle,  and  it  never  occurred  to  them  that  there  could  be  such  a

thine  as  failure.  Earnestness  of  purpose,  energy  and  enthusiasm  had 
brought  them  both  success  in  college,  and  why  should  not  these  same 
qualities  bring  assurance  of  good  fortune  to  the  new  venture  ?  At  all 
events  they  had  faith  in  the  power  of  these  forces,  and  with  light  hearts 
turned  their  thoughts  to  the  founding  of  a  new  fraternity. 

The  selection  of  a  name  was  perhaps  a  joint  matter,  the  sug- 
gestion of  the  triple  letter  coming  from  Miss  Pond,  while  the 
selection  of  the  letter  itself  can  perhaps  best  be  attributed  to 
Miss  Shaw,  who  was  the  hard  worker  on  Greek  mottoes,  pass 
words  and  emblems. 

In  regard  to  these  things,  Dr.  Mann  (Eleanor  Dorcas  Pond) 
said,  at  Syracuse,  1906 : 

"Mrs.  Martin  (Sarah  Ida  Shaw)  had  a  genius  for  those 
things.  She  was  a  fine  Greek  scholar,  loved  to  delve  in  Egyptian 
lore  and  Hindoo  mysticism  and  had  a  more  than  ordinary  liking  for  as- 
tronomy. Consequently  when  it  came  to  ritual,  badges,  emblems  and 
constitutions,  she  worked  out  many  plans  alone,  then  we  met,  went  over 
her  labors  together  and  together  decided  what  should  be  chosen  for 
Tri  Delta." 

Mrs.  Martin  (Sarah  Ida  Shaw)  writes  much  the  same  thing, 
saying : 

"I  worked  out  scores  of  plans  and  appropriate  possibilities 
in  regard  to  mottoes,  rituals  and  emblems  but  in  each  instance 
Miss  Pond  cast  a  deciding  vote,  I  relying  on  her  good  taste 
and  practical  ability.  The  pin,  in  particular,  one  of  my  several 
designs,     was     her     prtefertence.  My     ritual     services,     constitutions, 

etc.,  first  evolved  were  much  more  elaborate  than  those  actually 
used,  considerable  cutting  being  done  to  suit  the  taste  of  both  Miss  Pond 
and  others  of  the  early  members." 

Returning  to  the   aforementioned  manuscript  in   regard   to 

organization : 

"At  last,  all  was  finished  on  Tuesday,  the  third  day  of  the  week. 
Nov.  28,  1888,  but  there  was  one  more  meeting  of  the  two  friends  on  the 
following  afternoon  before  they  separated  for  the  Thanksgiving  recess,  at 
the  top  of  the  college  building,  in  what  was  then  the  Philological  Li- 
brary. It  was  there  that  the  two  girls  embraced  each  other  and  said 
'Tri-Delta  is  founded.'  Hence  it  became  customary  to  speak  of  Thanks- 
giving eve  as  the  fraternity's  birthday,  because  it  was  on  that  day  that 
these  two  young  people  realized  that  all  was  in  readiness.  It  was  par- 
ticularly appropriate  also  that  this  fraternity,  the  first  born  on  New 
England  soil  to  be  recognized  as  a  national,  should  be  connected  at  its 
founding  with  a  typically  New  England  feast.  It  is  not  strange  that  the 
hearts  of  these  sponsors  were  full  of  emotion  as  together  they  went  out 
of  the  college  building,  for  each  felt  there  were  added  reasons  why  her 
Thanksgiving  should  be  a  very  happy  one.  When  they  came  to  the  part- 
ing of  the  ways  at  the  historic  Boston  Common,  Miss  Pond  said,  'We 
can  make  the  girls  we  initiate  promise  secrecy,  but  what  shall  hold  us 
two?'  So  there  in  the  shadow  of  the  old  Park  Street  Church  with  a 
bright  new  moon  overhead  and  three  brilliant  stars  near  by,  while  count- 
less fainter  ones  gave  promise  of  the  mighty  hosts  that  would  one  day 
be  enrolled  upon  the  fraternity's  firmament,  the  two  faithful  friends 
clasped  hands  and  said  'In  the  presence  of  these  myriads  of  witnesses,  I

swear  eternal  loyalty  and  fealty  to  Delta  Delta  Delta.'  How  well  they  have 
kept  their  vow  there  are  many  to  testify,  but  how  unstintingly  they  gave 
of  their  money,  time  and  strength  both  before  that  night  and  since,  will 
never  be  known. 

Still  the  work  was  not  yet  done,  for  after  vacation  came  the  task  of 
gaining  over  other  girls  to  the  cause.  Florence  Stewart,  of  '89,  soon 
consented,  since  her  friendship  for  Miss  Pond  dated  back  to  the  time 
when  both  were  classmates  in  the  same  high  school.  Isabelle  Breed,  how- 
ever, was  not  so  easily  secured,  because  from  her  observation  up  to  this 
time  she  felt  that  fraternities  were  fundamentally  wrong.  It  was  only 
after  the  girls  had  told  her  enough  to  convince  her  of  the  lofty  and  noble 
Christian  principles  and  aims  of  the  society  that  she  consented  to  join. 

Three  girls  were  then  secured  from  the  junior  class,  one  of  them 
for  so  long  the  Trident  editor,  Emily  F.  Allen.  Another  was  Mrs.  Lotta 
A.  W.  Stevens,  for  years  a  teacher  in  the  Coldwater  (Mich.)  High 
School,  at  that  time  doing  special  work  at  the  University.  The  third 
junior  pledge  was  Hattie  Clinton  MacNeil,  who  later  became  a  President 
of  Alpha  Chapter  ('89-'90).  A  sophomore,  Marion  Katherine  Norris, 
grand-daughter  of  Mrs.  Mary  A.  Livermore  (a  woman  of  national  re- 
nown and  an  honorary  member  of  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma),  added  some- 
thing of  distinction.  Four  other  sophomores  were  soon  pledged,  Mattie 
Ora  Carter,  Margaret  Evelyn  Emerson,  Bertha  Brackett  and  Alice 
Elizabeth  Rich.  Six  others,  Myrtle  May  Burdett,  Hannah  Jo- 
sephine Centre,  Delia  Alice  Badger,  Emily  Stickney  Clough,  Grace  Butler 
Gallison  and  Charlotte  Elizabeth  Joslin,  followed,  but  since  there  was 
only  a  short  time  between  the  Thanksgiving  recess  and  the  Christmas 
holidays,  the  initiation  was  postponed  until  the  new  year.  Soon  after  its 
advent  came  the  longed-for  pins.  Isabelle  Breed  and  Florence  Stewart  were 
hastily  initiated  in  Prof.  Bowne's  lecture  room,  and  the  four  seniors  at- 
tended the  next  recitation  with  something  shining  on  their  breasts,  with 
the  result  that  there  was  much  craning  of  necks  and  twisting  of  bodies 
to  get  a  glimpse  of  the  new  society's  pin.  The  next  hour,  the  three 
juniors  were  hurried  through  in  Prof.  Buck's  Greek  room,  and  these 
seven  withdrew  to  the  home  of  Emily  F.  Allen,  on  Joy  street,  to  make 
preparations  for  the  more  elaborate  initiation  of  the  other  eleven.  This 
was  on  Friday,  January  15th,  1889,  a  memorable  day  in  the  annals  of 
the  fraternity,  for  on  that  day  the  first  chapter  was  organized  and  the 
fraternity's  life  as  an  organization  was  begun. 

The  following  Monday,  eighteen  pins  flashed  light  into  the  eyes  of 
the  other  society  people  who  were  surprised  at  the  size  of  the  organiza- 
tion, for  if  they  anticipated  anything,  they  had  expected  only  a  weakling 
organization  that  would  go  under  as  soon  as  the  seniors  graduated.  It 
was  really  a  dangerous  plan  to  try  to  assimilate  so  many  individualities 
in  so  short  a  time,  but  for  some  inexplicable  reason  things  ran  very 
smoothly,  and  the  meetings  were  a  great  success." 

Thus  was  the  enterprise  of  a  new  fraternity  for  women  to  be 
known  as  Delta  Delta  Delta  originated  and  formulated  at  Boston 
University,  Thanksgiving  Eve,  1888,  by  Sarah  Ida  Shaw  and 
Eleanor  Dorcas  Pond,  and  with  the  assistance  of  their  friends 
and  classmates,  Florence  Stewart  and  Isabelle  Breed,  the  com- 
plete Alpha  Chapter  of  eighteen  members  was  assembled,  initiated 
and  organized  on  January  15th,  1889. 


THE  FOUNDERS  AND 
THEIR  AIM. 


First  Members  of  Alpha  Chapter 

As  the  child  inherits  the  characteristics  and  tendencies  of  the 
parents,  so  must  the  trend  of  a  society  be  influenced  by  the  traits 
of  its  founders.  A  long  dissertation  on  the  personal  characteris- 
tics of  the  organizers  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  is  not  within  the  scope 
of  the  present  volume.  It  has  been  attempted  under  Biographical 
Notes  to  give  in  a  condensed  form  the  chief  events  of  their  lives 
and  it  is  the  desire  here  to  bring  out  merely  those  significant 
points  that  are  necessary  for  a  correct  interpretation  of  the  his- 
tory and  growth  hereafter  recorded  and  to  emphasize  enough  of 
the  self-sacrifice,  the  labor  and  the  enthusiasm  of  those  early 
days  to  ensure  from  a  rapidly  growing  society,  lasting  apprecia- 
tion of  and  honor  for  the  builders  to  whose  creation  many  have 
fallen  heir. 

As  originators  of  the  idea  of  founding  a  new  fraternity  for 
women,  Delta  Delta  Delta,  the  names  of  those  two  seniors  who 
consulted  together  in  "The  Parthenon"  of  Boston  University  must 
of  course  come  first,  Sarah  Ida  Shaw  and  Eleanor  Dorcas  Pond. 
These  two  girls  had  not  formed  their  friendship  early  in  their  col- 
lege course.  Miss  Shaw  was  a  resident  of  Roxbury,  Mass.,  was 
a  hard  student  and  devoted  her  spare  time  to  the  home  circle  and 
home  society  until  her  junior  y^ar.*.',Miss  Mann  boarded  in  Bos- 
ton in  order  to  attend  the  University  and  both  girls  having  more 
time  under  elective  work  toward  the  last  of  their  course  naturally 
sought  congenial  society.  The  tendency  of  Miss  Shaw  to  work 
-out  elaborate  details  and  to  study  and  investigate  the  unusual 
subjects  found  its  complement  in  the  practical,  clear  insight  and 
cheery  personality  of  her  friend.  Thus  the  two  were  well  fitted 
to  originate  and  develop  the  movement  together. 

To  Sarah  Ida  Shaw  Martin  must  be  given  the  credit  of  perse- 
vering and  untiring  labor  for  the  good  of  the  society  through  all 
the  years  which  have  succeeded.  Her  interest  has  been  such  that 
no  labor  has  been  deemed  too  great.  The  entire  list  of  early 
-chapters  find  her  hand  writing  throughout  their  correspondence

files  and  as  student,  teacher  or  home  maker  her  ever  present  in- 
terest has  been  Tri  Delta. 

Dr.  Mann  (Miss  Pond),  while  deprecating  having  to  give 
the  necessary  data  for  the  biographical  notes,  as  sounding  too 
much  of  the  "ego,"  with  her  usual  modesty,  writes : 

"Mrs.  Martin  (Miss  Shaw)  has  of  course  done  much  more  for  the 
fraternity  since  B.  U.  days  than  I,  for  I  have  been  busy  in  another  field, 
but   I  always  have  the   Delta  girls   with   me  in  heart,  wherever   I   am." 

Notwithstanding  her  busy  life,  outlined  elsewhere,  Dr. 
Mann,  after  the  college  days  of  loyal  endeavor  were  over,  found 
time  to  organize  the  Chicago  Alliance  (1896),  was  watching  the 
New  York  field  while  there  for  a  propitious  inauguration  of  an 
other  and  is  and  has  always  been  ready  with  interest  and  love  to 
labor  whenever  opportunity  offered. 

Mrs.  Martin  (Miss  Shaw),  although  for  years  a  very  suc- 
cessful teacher,  found  time  to  give  strict  attention  to  the  develop- 
ment of  Tri  Delta  in  each  slightest  detail  asked  of  her.  The 
Gamma  delegate  to  the  Woman's  Pan-Hellenic  ('89)  traveled  to 
Meriden,  Conn,  (where  Mrs.  Martin  was  teaching),  anxious, 
having  attended  the  Alpha  Chapter  Conference  on  Trident  and 
other  matters,  to  talk  over  everything  with  her,  as  Grand  Presi- 
dent. She  found  her  a  scholarly  woman,  bright,  full-hearted, 
eager  for  work.  Although  denied  the  privilege  of  attending  the 
first  two  conventions,  Mrs.  Martin  was  present  in  1897  and  1900, 
holding  grand  offices  at  those  times.  To-day  she  is  exceptionally 
interested  in  fraternity  problems  and  in  educational  subjects  in 
general.  Almost  her  whole  time  for  the  last  few  years  has  been 
given  to  the  compiling  of  "The  Sorority  Hand-Book,"  which  has 
just  been  published.  Perhaps  the  distinguishing  mark  of  her 
mentality  might  be  said  to  be  an  unusual  talent  for  detail  and  an 
appreciation  of  symbolism,  color  and  form.  Her  creed  has  been 
that  Tri  Delta  should  be  one  of  the  strongest,  if  not  the  strongest, 
influence  for  good  in  a  college  girl's  life. 

Dr.  Mann  has  led  an  active,  busy  life.  Her  profession  and 
the  profession  of  her  husband  have  caused  many  changes  of  resi- 
dence, but  these  changes  in  themselves  have  been  an  education  as 
their  homes  have  been  made  in  the  larger  cities  and  here  her  work 
has  been  found.  Although  a  founder  of  Tri  Delta,  she  attended 
her  first  convention  at  Syracuse,  N.  Y.,  the  Seventh  National, 
1906.  There  facing  the  encircling  square  of  the  banquet  tables, 
she  looked  into  one  hundred  and  seventy-five  faces,  representa-

tives  of  a  society  fifteen  hundred  strong,  and  upon  request  re- 
peated something  of  the  story  of  the  founding  of  Delta  Delta 
Delta,  and  perhaps  for  the  first  time  fully  realized  how  great  a 
momentum  the  movement  had  gained  to  which  eighteen  years  be- 
fore, in  her  girlhood  days  at  Boston  University,  she  had  been  a 
partner  in  giving  it  first  impetus.  Bright,  unaffected,  capable, 
successful,  she  was  a  present  witness  to  each  delegate  of  how 
good  a  thing  it  has  been  for  Delta  Delta  Delta  that  from  the  first 
to  the  last,  from  the  women  on  whose  golden  locks  the  finger  of 
time  has  begun  its  tracery  of  silver  to  the  newest  pledge,  all 
have  remaired  to  watch  and  to  work. 

To  the  worth  and  loyalty  of  the  two  other  senior  girls, 
Florence  Stuart  and  Isabelle  Breed,  first  allies  in  organizing  the 
new  society,  the  success  of  the  enterprise  testified. 

Especially  noteworthy  was  the  work  of  Emily  F.  Allen,  one 
of  the  junior  trio  next  chosen.  Her  nine  years  of  service  as 
Editor-in-Chief  of  the  Trident  were  productive  of  more  than 
the  successful  establishment  of  the  magazine.  Among  her  early 
editorials  is  found  ever  that  careful  conservatism  which  is  so  val- 
uable when  working  hand  in  hand  with  progressive  ideas.  She 
strongly  advocated  always,  sound  intensive  development,  strong 
alumnae  obligations  and  among  her  earliest  editorials,  she  ad- 
vocated regular  examinations,  certificates  of  membership  and  uni- 
fied report  systems,  all  of  which  have  since  been  adopted. 

Associated  with  Miss  Shaw  in  the  active  work  of  Chapter  ex- 
tension was  Charlotte  E.  Joslin,  Alpha,  A.  B.  '92,  A.  M.  '96,  a  girl 
of  energy,  enthusiasm  and  intense  loyalty.  As  one  of  the  early 
Grand  Secretaries,  much  of  the  important  work  of  the  formative 
period  fell  upon  her  and  no  task  that  she  could  find  to  do  was 
left  undone.  Miss  Joslin,  recognizing  the  need  of  keeping  in 
touch  with  the  members  who  had  left  college,  in  1894  compiled  a 
complete  list  of  members,  with  address  of  each.  She  also  secured 
material  for  three  later  directories  published  in  1895,  1896,  1897. 

Until  1897  practically  all  the  work  of  extension  was  done 
from  Alpha  Chapter  through  its  founders,  alumnae,  and  its 
chapter  organization  excepting  as  other  chapters,  alert  and  watch 
ful.  passed  on  to  them  suggestions  of  opportunities  which  came 
to  them.  In  the  Trident  Table  of  Contents,  Business  Manager 
lists,  and  in  the  Grand  Council  lists  more  explicit  record  of  the 
routine  work  of  these  early  members  will  be  found.

Grand  President  and  in  most  cases  by  the  other  three  Grand 
Trustees,  (under  Grand  Chapter  ruling.) 

Space  forbids  much  of  detail.  The  girls  of  Alpha  have  left  a 
record  that  needs  no  words  to  interpret  it.  Most  of  them  fine 
students,  some  of  them  exceptionally  so,  earnest  in  purpose, 
zealous  in  labor,  and  loyal,  both  then  and  now,  the  result  of  their 
endeavors  is  their  highest  and  only  necessary  enconium. 

At  various  meetings  during  the  year  1889,  the  following 
girls  were  initiated,  Bertha  Lee  Gardner,  Maud  Eliza  Muzzy, 
Blanche  Ellen  Seaver,  Carrie  Usher  Tanner  and  Clara  Grace 
Ayres,  Sophomores ;  Nettie  Louisa  Buckland,  Mary  Elizabeth 
Cochran,  Etta  lone  Ferry,  Christine  Evelyn  Jansson,  Edith 
Knowles,  Susie  Ida  Sayre,  Flora  Mandane  Smith,  thus  raising  the 
first  year  chapter  (to  Nov.  22,  1889)  to  thirty-one. 

The  records  of  the  early  meetings  show  decisions  on  matters 
of  symbolism  and  constitution  which  having  been  left  open 
questions  were  discussed  and  voted  upon  by  the  chapter  as  a 
whole.  The  records  reveal  a  quiet,  level  headed,  steady  progress,  a 
simplicity  that  made  no  flaunting  of  the  project  under  way  and 
yet  a  breadth  of  insight  and  judgment  that  measured  pretty  ac- 
curately the  task  to  which  they  had  bent  their  energies. 

There  is  a  quiet  dignity  about  even  their  simplest  reports,  a 
quaint  and  perhaps  only  partial  appreciation  of  what  these  rec- 
ords meant,  that  the  motions  and  opinions  therein  recorded  were 
in  reality  the  completion  of  the  task  begun  in  the  early  fall  of 
1888,  the  organizing  of  a  new  fraternity  for  women. 

In  short,  both  the  early  members  of  Alpha  and  the  charter 
members  of  the  older  chapters  may  all  be  looked  upon  as  in  a 
measure,  founders  of  Tri  Delta.  By  their  labors  and  their  suc- 
cesses the  development  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  was  made  possible. 

Trials  of  Alpha 

External  rivalry  and  opposition  to  a  new  society  were  to  be 
expected.  The  audacity  of  the  attempt  created  astonishment  and 
even  their  kindliest  friends  burdened  them  with  well-meant  advice 
to  "give  it  up"  and  apply  for  a  charter  in  some  of  the  established 
sororities.  They  were  well  provided  with  the  periodicals  of  such 
societies,  their  rivals  even  contributing  a  good  supply.  They 
quietly  read  all  that  was  offered  and  as  quietly  continued  to  work 
out  their  own  plans.  But  neither  their  newness  nor  their  finan- 
cial burdens  were  their  worst  trial.     A  variety  of  opinions  exist- 


26  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

ed  (within  the  Chapter)  as  to  what  kind  of  a  society  they  had 
really  formed.  Some  wanted  it  "secret"  like  their  rivals  and  a 
few  "semi-secret",  while  others  wanted  it  "open",  either  with  a 
theory  of  better  opposition  to  their  rivals  or  as  "a  matter  of  con- 
science". Those  who  wanted  it  semi-secret  favored  secret  rituals 
and  open  meetings  but  when  their  suggestion  was  adopted  and 
two  or  three  open  meetings  held,  they  soon  concluded  that  they 
did  not  care  to  try  to  prepare  accommodations  for  all  who  might 
come.  Among  those  who  desired  an  "open  society"  were  many 
who  favored  the  Delta  Upsilon  plan  and  desired  to  make  Tri- 
Delta  an  example  of  that  plan  among  the  women's  fraternities. 
"But  soon  invitations  from  other  sororities  began  to  come  in, 
causing  some  resignations  and  a  general  feeling  of  uneasiness 
and  all  were  speedily  convinced  that  permanence  could  only  be 
assured  by  being  'secret'  like  their  rivals."  A  recent  letter  from 
Mrs.  Martin,  giving  the  outlines  of  this  trying  period,  follows 
the  sentence  quoted  above  with  one  saying :  "During  all  this  try- 
ing season,  Miss  Pond  worked  loyally,  hand  in  hand,  with  me 
and  gradually  the  elements  of  uncertainty  disappeared  and  suc- 
cess began  to  crown  the  efforts  of  the  new  chapter." 

Success  of  Alpha 

That  a  society  of  so  few  members  should  grant  three  other 
charters  to  far  distant  groups  in  its  first  year  of  existence  was 
somewhat  unusual.  Fourteen  girls  returned  to  school  in  the  fall 
of  '89,  but  on  initiation  day  nine  others  donned  the  Stars  and 
Crescent  and  the  continued  existence  of  Alpha  Chapter  of  Delta 
Delta  Delta  was  insured. 

The  Aim 

During  the  eighteen  years  which  have   followed,   through 

five  convention  revisions  of  the  Constitution,  "The  Aim"  of  the 

fraternity  as  written  by  its  founders  has  remained  unchanged. 

"The  aim  of  this  fraternity  shall  be  to  establish  a  perpetual  bond  of 
friendship  among  the  members,  to  develop  a  stronger  and  more  wom- 
anly character,  to  broaden  the  moral  and  intellectual  life,  and  to  ma- 
terially assist  its  members  in  every  possible  way." 

Not  out  of  character  to  follow  this  are  the  words  of  the 

present  Grand  President,  Amy  Olgen  Parmelee,  who  in  closing 

a  recent  communication  says:    "Let  the  chapter  life  cultivate  in 

each  member  accuracy,  promptness,  business  ability,   reliability 

and  justice."

tin (Miss  Shaw),  though  there  is  no  record  of  such  an  office  or  appoint- 
ment). 

In  records  quoted,  the  word  society  is  always  used.  Oct.  1889,  there 
is  found,  "Alpha  Chapter  of  Delta  Delta  Delta,"  and  in  the  record  of 
April  20,  1891,  the  important  motions  moved  and  carried  that  a  fraternity

Moved  and  carried  that  price  of  paper  be  $1.00  per  year. 

N.  B. — This  was  the  report  of  that  meeting  which  was  held  immedi- 
ately after  the  Woman's  Pan-Hellenic  Convention  which  had  been  called 
to  meet  in  Boston  by  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma.  Three  delegates  being  re- 
quired from  each  sorority.  Alpha  Chapter  had  assembled  with  one  of 
its  own  number,  one  each  from  Gamma  and  Delta  (Deuteron)  Chapters 
as  their  representatives.  Advantage  was  taken  of  this  and  the  first  Inter- 
Chapter  Conference  of  Tri-Delta  called,  resulting  as  the  minutes  relate. 
This  meeting  was  held  in  the  parsonage  of  the  People's  Church,  opposite 
the  Youth's  Companion  Building  (then  under  construction)  corner  of 
Columbus  Ave.  and  Berkeley  St.  The  majority  of  the  out  of  town  mem- 
bers of  Delta  Delta  Delta  then  roomed  in  this  building  and  were  as 
closely  associated  as  in  a  chapter  house.  B.  L.  P. 

In  a  later  record  is  found: 

"On  Wednesday,  Nov.  25,  '91,  the  first  number  of  the  Trident  ap- 
peared in  its  dainty  cover  of  gold,  silver  and  blue.  It  contains  34  pages  of 
interesting  matter,  including  articles  by  members  of  various  chapters, 
alumnae  notes  and  letters  from  all  the  chapters.  It  certainly  is  a  very 
creditable  production,  showing  the  careful  and  diligent  work  of  the  edi- 
tors and  business  managers  and  it  fully  merits  our  warm  admiration  and 
praise."

DEVELOPMENT. 


First  Chapter  Admitted 

To  develop  and  extend  a  new  society  along  wise,  successful 
and  safe  lines  is  indeed  a  greater  task  than  to  found  one.  The 
history  of  chapter  extension  in  all  the  Greek  letter  societies 
passes  through  the  various  phases  that  may  be  termed  aggres- 
sive, progressive,  conservative  and  ultra-conservative,  which  last 
phase  graduates,  sometimes  involuntarily,  to  complete  stagna- 
tion. The  order  in  which  these  phases  are  experienced  in  the 
different  societies  varies  much  and  it  is  useless  to  try  to  judge 
under  which  any  have  labored  or  have  yet  to  enter.  To  denom- 
inate the  periods  of  extension  in  any  way  would  run  the  danger 
of  arousing  the  only  differences  of  opinion  that  have  ever  pro- 
duced a  suspicion  of  discordant  feeling  in  Tri  Delta  history.  But 
a  brief  outline  of  extension  is  attempted  here  as  both  the  follow- 
ing chapters  of  the  general  history,  the  histories  of  the  individ- 
ual chapters  and  alliances  and  parts  of  the  statistical  pages  are  all 
really  contributions  to  this  subject. 

For  the  earliest  extensions  the  manuscript  of  the  first  his-

"It  happened  that  one  of  the  first  set  of  freshmen  initiates, 
Josephine  Center,  boarded  at  the  Young  Woman's  Christian  As- 
sociation, where  her  pin  attracted  the  attention  of  Miss  Etta  May 
Budd,  B.  S.,  '82,  Iowa  State  College,  who  was  taking  a  course  in 
painting  at  the  Boston  Art  Museum.  This  young  lady  had 
founded  a  society,  U.  D.  T.,  at  her  Alma  Mater,  and  had  inten- 
tions of  spreading  the  same  throughout  the  world.  She  had  al- 
ready opened  a  correspondence  with  several  colleges,  among 
them  Simpson,  where  a  local  L.  F.  V.  by  name,  existed,  which 
had  pledged  itself  to  join  her  society.  Miss  Budd  requested  an 
interview  with  the  leading  spirits  in  Tri  Delta  with  a  view  to  ne- 
gotiating about  forming  a  chapter  of  her  own  society,  but  it  did 
not  seem  wise  to  the  Boston  University  girls  to  do  this,  since  the 
Iowa  College  was  not  well  known.  After  prolonged  discussion, 
a  coalition  was  formed  and  some  things  in  the  constitution  of

NAMING  OF   CHAPTERS.  33 

Miss  Budd's  society  were  incorporated  in  that  of  Tri-Delta,  not- 
ably those  portions  referring  to  the  Commissioner  of  Education, 
the  provinces  and  the  arrangement  for  chapters  in  Canada  and 
England.  Miss  Budd  was  accordingly  initiated  at  the  same 
time  that  the  last  quota  of  freshmen  was  added  to  the  list  (Mar. 
7,  '89),  but  as  she  did  not  intend  to  return  to  the  west  until 
summer,  it  was  decided  to  postpone  the  initiation  of  the  two 
chapters  in  Iowa  until  that  time.  The  L.  F.  V.  society,  how- 
ever, was  unwilling  to  wait,  for  it  was  customary  at  Simpson 
College  to  pledge  preparatory  students  in  the  spring  term,  and 
as  they  had  three  rivals,  I.  C  (later  Pi  Beta  Phi),  Kappa  Alpha 
Theta  and  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma,  they  felt  their  prospects  would 
be  better  if  they  could  be  initiated  immediately.  Unfortunately 
none  of  the  upper  class  girls  at  Boston  University  could  go,  so 
after  much  discussion,  it  was  voted  to  grant  the  charter  without 
delay,  sending  some  of  the  documents  through  the  mail  and  giv- 
ing others  to  Miss  Budd  to  take  later. 

Since  the  society  was  now  in  truth  a  fraternity,  it  became 
necessary  to  have  a  guard  or  chapter  pin  and  the  Trident  was 
selected  as  the  most  satisfactory.  Never  since  that  time  have 
such  massive  Tridents  held  sway  over  the  hearts  that  beat  be- 
neath them  but  they  served  their  purpose  well  on  that  occasion 
for  they  excited  unbounded  curiosity  and  questions  rained  thick 
and  fast  until  the  answer  came,  'We  are  a  National  Fraternity.' 

Naming  of  Chapters 

Miss  Budd  had  asked  for  the  letter  Delta,  and  Delta  Deut- 
eron  was  therefore  given  to  the  chapter  at  Simpson  College,  in 
accordance  with  a  system  of  naming  previously  agreed  upon. 
This  arrangement  gave  one  letter  of  the  alphabet  to  each  state, 
to  be  borne  by  the  first  chapter  in  the  state,  while  the  second  was 
to  be  known  as  the  Deuteron,  and  the  third  as  the  Triteron  of 
this  letter.  Accordingly  the  charters  were  granted,  Delta  to 
Iowa  State  Agricultural  College  at  Ames,  Iowa,  and  Delta  Deut- 
eron to  Simpson  College,  at  Indianola,  Iowa.  The  chapter  at 
Simpson,  contrary  to  expectation,  was  initiated  first,  but  the 
charters  remained  unchanged,  for  it  was  deemed  best  in  defer- 
ence to  Miss  Budd  to  let  her  chapter  have  the  honor  of  being  first 
in  the  state,  since  its  charter  was  granted  before  the  one  at 
Simpson." 


34.  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

N.  B. — Later  conventions  simplified  this  naming  system  by  adher- 
ing as  closely  as  possible  to  an  alphabetical  order,  and  upon  the  exhaus- 
tion of  the  alphabet  the  plan  of  making  a  combination  of  the  letter  of  the 
nearest  chapter  with  some  other  letter  has  been  adopted. — B.  L.  P. 

Chapter  Extension 

By  reference  to  chapter  histories  it  will  be  seen  that  al- 
though the  initiation  of  the  Delta  Chapter  above  mentioned  oc- 
curred in  June,  1890,  some  fifteen  girls  being  initiated  or 
pledged  (among  the  pledged  members  was  Flora  Wilson, 
daughter  of  Secretary  Wilson),  this  chapter  never  really  organ 
ized  as  the  faculty  passed  stringent  anti-fraternity  rules  before 
college  opened  in  the  fall.  Consequently  the  third  chapter  to  be 
added  to  the  roll  was  really  Epsilon,  (1889)  of  Knox  College, 
Galesburg,  111.,  and  the  fourth,  Gamma  of  Adrian  College,  Adrian, 
Mich.  (1890).  Beta,  St.  Lawrence  University,  Canton,  N.  Y., 
came  into  the  fold  Dec.  24,  1891 ;  Zeta,  University  of  Cincinnati, 
was  added  in  1892,  and  in  1893,  Eta,  University  of  Vermont,  was 
added  just  prior  to  the  calling  of  the  first  national  convention,  at 
Galesburg,  111.  In  this  day  of  patronage  of  the  greater  univer- 
sities, it  is  something  of  a  note-worthy  fact  that  although  Delta 
Delta  Delta  was  founded  in  one  of  the  larger  schools,  the  Alpha 
Chapter  had  as  its  loyal  supporters  through  a  considerable  por- 
tion of  the  formative  years,  its  four  oldest  chapters  in  schools 
generally  known  as  "the  smaller  colleges."  These,  however,  were 
long  established  schools  of  good  collegiate  rank  with  other  well 
established  Greek  letter  societies,  and  the  work  that  these 
chapters  were  able  to  do  for  their  fraternity  speaks  louder  than 
words  for  the  quality  and  character  of  these  student  bodies.  Used 
to  long  endeavor,  patient  of  result  and  steadfast  in  purpose, 
they  were  perhaps  peculiarly  qualified  to  aid  in  a  new  enterprise. 
An  article  in  the  Reviezv  of  Reviews,  Sept,  1892,  says:  "The 
principal  task  of  our  American  Colleges  is  to  make  men"  and  it 
might  be  said  in  regard  to  the  extension  of  Tri-Delta,  that  while 
since  those  early  days  it  has  not  been  the  policy  to  enter  the 
smaller  colleges,  nevertheless  Tri  Delta  has  recognized  that  its 
chief  responsibility  is  to  select  noble  women  and  where  these  are 
fostered  Tri  Delta  is  proud  tc  remain. 

In  1894  Theta  was  placed  at  the  University  of  Minnesota, 
(Minneapolis),  Kappa  at  the  University  of  Nebraska  (Lincoln), 
and   Iota  at  the  University  of   Michigan    (Ann   Arbor).     The 


ALUMNAE  ALLIANCES.  35 

latter  was  perhaps  the  one  unfortunate  experience  in  chapter  ex- 
tension, the  rank  of  the  school  blinding  distant  executives  as  to  a 
necessity  for  very  thorough  local  investigations.  This  charter 
was  loyally  surrendered  (1900)  by  the  chapter  itself,  devotion 
to  the  welfare  of  the  general  fraternity  convincing  them  of  the 
wisdom  of  such  a  course.  In  1895,  Lambda  was  chartered  at 
Baker  University,  Baldwin,  Kansas,  Sigma  at  Wesleyan  Univer- 
sity, Middletown,  Conn.,  and  Upsilon  at  Northwestern  Univer- 
sity, Evanston,  111.  The  next  year,  1896,  gave  two  more,  Nu, 
Ohio  State  University,  Columbus,  O.,  and  Omicron,  Syracuse 
University,  Syracuse,  N.  Y.  In  1898,  Mu  Chapter  was  installed 
in  the  University  of  Wisconsin,  Madison,  Wis.,  and  Xi  at  the 
Woman's  College  of  Baltimore,  Md.  But  one  chapter  was  ad- 
mitted in  1900,  Pi  in  the  University  of  California,  Berkley,  Cal. 
Three  years  later,  1903,  Rho  was  installed  in  Barnard  College, 
Columbia  University,  New  York  City,  and  in  1904  four  chapters 
were  admitted,  some  of  which  had  had  petitions  pending  for 
more  than  two  years.  These  chapters  were  Tau  at  Bucknell 
University,  Lewisburg,  Pa. ;  Phi,  University  of  Iowa,  Iowa  City : 
Chi,  University  of  Mississippi,  Oxford,  Miss.,  and  Psi,  Univer- 
sity of  Pennsylvania,  Philadelphia,  Pa.  In  1905  there  was  a 
return  to  the  first  letter  of  the  alphabet,  for  the  youngest  chap- 
ter, situated  at  Randolph-Macon  Woman's  College,  Lynchburg, 
Va.,  Alpha  Xi. 

Alumnae  Alliances 

The  Alumnae  Association  movement  has  met  with  the  great- 
est success  and  swiftest  progress  among  the  women's  fraterni- 
ties. Pi  Beta  Phi  was  the  first  to  start  such  an  idea  when  in 
1881,  as  the  I.  C.  Sorosis,  thirteen  years  after  founding, 
she  began  the  establishment  of  Alumnae  Chapters.  Several 
changes  in  her  plans  of  alumnae  organizations  have  been  made.  In 
1889,  seventeen  years  after  founding,  Alpha  Phi  organized  its 
first  two  Alumnae  Chapters.  Delta  Gamma  took  up  the  idea  at 
about  the  same  time.  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma  opened  one  on  a  some- 
what indefinite  plan  in  1892,  twenty-two  years  after  founding, 
which  existed  until  1896.  After  this  their  present  plan  was  taken  up 
and  officially  recognized  in  1901-1902.  Eighteen  years  after 
founding,  that  is  in  1892,  Gamma  Phi  Beta  began  this  work.  In 
1893,  Kappa  Alpha  Theta  organized  its  first  Alumnae  Chapter 
and  Chi  Omega  organized  its  first  one  in  1900. 


36  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Delta  Delta  Delta,  founded  1888,  made  provision  from  the 
first  for  the  founding  of  Alumnae  Chapters  or  Alliances  as  they 
are  called.  But  four  classes  had  graduated  from  Alpha  Chap- 
ter, when  its  Alliance  was  formed,  August  29,  1892.  The  first 
election  of  officers  is  reported  in  the  Trident  (Vol.  II,  No.  1)  as 
follows:  Pres. — Clara  Grace  Ayres,  of  Baltimore;  V.  Pres. — 
Bertha  Lee  Gardner,  of  Washington,  D.  C. ;  Sec.  and  Treas. — 
Emily  Frances  Allen,  of  Boston,  Mass. 

They  were  all  busy  women  but  found  time  to  strengthen  and 
broaden  the  alliance  movement.  Miss  Gardner  was  the  first 
Alumnae  Department  Editor  of  the  Trident.  The  Third  Degree 
ritual  although  previously  prepared  was  not  used  until  1895, 
when  a  class  of  eight  Alpha  seniors  was  initiated.  The  number 
of  alumnae  being  small  and  scattered,  after  the  second  meeting 
of  Alpha  Alliance,  June  8,  1893,  it  was  decided  to  reserve  all 
important  business  for  an  annual  meeting  following  Com- 
mencement each  year,  but  by  1897,  the  present  system  of  regular 
monthly  meetings  was  in  full  operation.  The  first  two  alumnae 
to  receive  the  third  degree,  outside  of  Alpha  Chapter,  were  two 
Lambda  girls  who  were  visiting  in  Boston,  Anna  M.  Hair  and 
Mrs.  Mary  Murray  Hair.  They  were  made  Circle  Degree  mem- 
bers, July  19,  1895.  Mary  Chadbourne  Smith,  Theta,  also  re- 
ceived the  third  degree  at  this  time. 

Epsilon  was  the  next  chapter  to  follow  in  alliance  organiza- 
tion, then  the  Chicago  Alliance  was  organized  by  one  of  Tri 
Delta's  founders,  Dr.  Eleanor  Pond  Mann,  in  1898.  The  others 
to  the  number  of  sixteen  have  followed  in  rapid  succession,  as 
appears  hereinafter  in  detail. 

Although  the  youngest  of  the  seven  stronger  national  soror- 
ities, Delta  Delta  Delta  was  of  the  first,  perhaps  the  first,  to  work 
out  and  perfect  the  Alumnae  Association  system. 

Delta  Delta  Delta  was  the  first  sorority  to  make  an  allied  and 
influential  place  for  Alumnae  and  the  third  degree,  known  as  the 
Circle  or  Alliance  Degree,  is  a  distinctive  feature.  One  of  the 
impressive  features  of  a  Tri  Delta  Convention  is  the  combin- 
ation of  graduate  and  under-graduate  work. 

Alumnae  alliances  were  planned  by  the  founders  in  1888  and 
were  sanctioned  and  further  provided  for  by  the  First  National 
Convention  (1893). 


IN  OTHER  LINES.  '  37 

At  the  second  (1894)  and  third  (1897)  National  Conven- 
tions of  Delta  Delta  Delta,  the  Alumnae  Alliance  Delegates 
worked  not  only  with  the  main  body  but  were  given  equal  powers 
with  the  official  delegates  of  the  active  chapters.  It  was  felt 
better  work  could  b?  done  by  tha  alliances  if  a  firmer  organi- 
zation could  be  accomplished  and  National  Sessions  of  Delta 
Delta  Delta  Alumnae  Alliances  were  undertaken  in  1898. 

In  Other  Lines 

As  late  as  1880  but  six  men's  fraternity  magazines  were  in 
operation.  But  one  sorority  exceeds  Delta  Delta  Delta  in  the 
number  of  volumes  of  magazines  published,  by  anything  more 
than  a  very  few  numbers,  although  four  of  the  other  sororities 
preceded  Delta  Delta  Delta  by  from  sixteen  to  twenty-one  years 
in  organization.  Delta  Delta  Delta  took  up  the  publication  of 
the  Trident  when  there  were  but  four  active  Chapters,  issued  the 
first  number  on  her  third  birthday  and  has  not  only  continued  it 
without  interruption  but  has  placed  it  on  a  paying  basis.  The 
convention  of  1906  authorized  the  publication  of  a  private  bulle- 
tin "The  Triton,"  which  has  just  completed  No.  1  of  Vol  II.  Sig- 
ma Chi  brought  out  something  of  the  kind  for  awhile  but  the  first 
regularly  issued  private  bulletin  among  men's  fraternities  was 
"The  Hustler"  of  Sigma  Alpha  Epsilon,  1892.  As  far  as  known  but 
one  other  sorority,  Chi  Omega,  publishes  a  secret  magazine,  three 
numbers  of  which  have  been  issued.  It  is  called  "The  Mysta- 
gogue." 

The  following  chapters  trace  the  history  out  in  its  respec- 
tive sections  under  the  heads  of  Government,  Finances,  Visiting 
Delegate,  Publications,  Conventions,  Intec-Sorority  Events, 
Chapter  Histories  and  Alliance  Histories.  In  statistical  pages 
will  be  found  a  chronological  outline  and  various  charts  and 
tables  indicative  of  the  progress  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  and  useful 
for  reference  on  general  sorority  subjects. 

Explanatory  Note. — In  the  foregoing  pages,  besides  the  verbatim 
quotations,  many  facts  have  been  taken  from  the  manuscript  of  the  first 
Grand  Historian  and  also  much  of  her  data  has  been  made  use  of  in  the 
paragraphs  on  the  organization  of  the  different  chapters.  Baird's  Manual 
of  American  College  Fraternities,  (1905),  Walter  B.  Palmer's  History  of 
Phi  Delta  Theta  (1905),  The  History  of  Sigma  Alpha  Epsilon  (1893)  and 
Kanna's  Record  (1903)  have  been  freely  used  as  reference  books  through- 
out the  work.  If  in  citing  data  of  other  fraternities  or  sororities  any 
mistakes  have  been  made,  they  are  errors  of  information  rather  than 
those  of  intention. — B.  L.  P. 


DEGREES  AND  INSIGNIA 


Degrees 

Delta  Delta  Delta  is  distinguished  by  being  a  fraternity 
with  three  distinct  degrees. 

I.  The  Trident  Degree  is  a  formal  degree  administered  at 
the  time  of  pledging  and  is  perhaps  as  dignified  and  binding  as 
anything  in  Pan-Hellenism. 

II.  The  Stars  and  Crescent  Degree  is  the  regular  collegiate 
chapter  degree  with  its  A  A  A,  A  A  A  and  A  ©  $  mot- 
toes. 

III.  The  Circle  or  Alumnae  Alliance  Degree  is  also  a  part 
of  formal  ritual  work  and  is  known  as  the  Graduate  Degree.  It 
can  only  be  administered  to  those  having  taken  the  Trident  and 
Stars  and  Crescent  Degree. 

Insignia 

BADGES. 

The  official  badge  of  the  First  or  Trident  Degree  has  been 
authorized  as  a  Trident  of  silver  and  is  known  as  the  pledge  pin. 
It  bears  the  chapter  letter  and  may  be  worn  as  a  guard  with  the 
second  degree  badge. 

The  badge  of  the  Second  Degree  is  described  as  consisting 
of  three  stars  within  a  Crescent  of  three  hundred  degrees,  bearing 
three  Deltas.  This  is  the  college  emblem  and  is  recognized  as  the 
pre-eminent  symbol. 

The  badge  of  the  Third  Degree  is  a  Delta  in  white  enamel 
supported  by  three  Deltas  of  gold  and  inscribed  in  a  golden  circle, 
surrounded  by  six  spherical  triangles  in  blue  enamel.  This  is  to 
be  worn  beneath  the  badge  of  the  Second  or  Stars  and  Crescent 
Degree. 

MOTTOES. 

Besides  the  secret  mottoes  of  the  second  and  third  degrees, 
there  is  the  Tri  Alpha  motto  of  the  Trident  or  first  degree,  which 

(38)

is  also  known  as  the  open  motto  of  the  fraternity  and  is  'A(j<£aAw« 
'AyawwcT  'AAA^Xas.     (Asphalos'  Agapomen  Alle'las). 
"Let  us  steadfastly  love  one  another." 

CALL. 

The  call  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  is  sung  to  the  1,  3,  5,  and  8 
of  a  scale  ascending  and  descending.    It  is

COAT    OF   ARMS. 

The  Seventh  National  Convention  (1906)  adopted  a  Coat 
of  Arms  as  designed  by  Richard  B.  Lockwood  of  New  York. 
It  is  in  Heraldic  Terminology  as  follows :  A  Shield  Quartered 
— the  first  and  fourth  azure,  a  Trident  or.  The  second  and  third 
or — a   Pine   tree   ppr.      Crest — A  pansy   ppr.     Mottd — 'Aor<£aAak 

AyanweT    AAA^Aas. 

N.  B. — Meaning  the  1st  and  4th  are  blue  fields  on  each  of  which  is 
a  silver  Trident;  the  2nd  and  3rd  are  gold  fields  on  each  of  which  is  a 
pine  tree,  natural  color. 

Elizabeth  A.  S.  Tredwell,  Rho,  was  chairman  of  Committee 
securing  design. 

FLAG. 

A  selection  made  by  the  Grand  Council  was  sanctioned  by 
the  convention  of  1906.    The  design  is  described  as  a  rectangular 


40  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

flag  of  three  vertical  bars,  the  first  and  third  sea  green,  (green 
being  the  union  of  Tri  Delta's  colors),  one  bearing  three  Deltas 
(superimposed)  in  white  and  the  other,  three  stars  in  white;  the 
middle  bar,  white  with  the  green  pine  tree  upon  it.  The  design 
was  drawn  by  Eleanor  McClure,  of  Epsilon,  daughter  of  S.  S.  Mc- 
Clure,  Publisher,  New  York  City  (he,  himself,  an  alumnus  of 
Knox  College.) 

STATIONERY   HEADINGS. 

Stationery  headings  for  formal  correspondence  have  been 
in  vogue  since  the  first  year.  They  are  too  numerous  to  describe, 
excepting  by  illustration.  Business  stationery  was  varied  ac- 
cording to  fancy  of  officer  or  chapter  until  in  1905  a  uniform 
style  was  adopted,  the  size  being  the  square  commercial  note  for 
both  chapters  and  Grand  Council. 

A  uniform  style  of  embossed  lettering  is  used  by  the  Grand 
Council  and  each  individual  chapter  has  freedom  of  choice  in 
lettering,  color,  and  design.

GOVERNMENT. 


The  government  of  the  fraternity  was  vested  in  the  found- 
ers of  Alpha  Chapter  and  Alpha  Chapter  from  1888  to  1893. 
The  archives  are  still  with  Alpha.  The  Grand  Council  System 
inaugurated  by  the  first  convention  has  been  systematized  and 
strengthened  by  each  succeeding  one.  The  Grand  Council  at 
present  contains  ten  members. 

Provisions  were  made  for  five  provinces — Alpha,  the  At- 
lantic State — Beta,  between  the  Atlantic  States  and  the  Mis- 
sissippi— Gamma,  the  remainder  of  the  United  States — Canada, 
Alpha — and  England,  Alpha.  Each  Province  is  directly  under 
the  supervision  of  a  Grand  Vice  President  and  her  Deputy. 

The  Alumnae  Alliance  System  is  advisory  to  and  subject  to 
regulations  by  the  National  Conventions  and  Grand  Councils  of 
the  general  fraternity.  Its  organization  and  government  follow 
the  same  rules. 

Each  petition  for  a  charter  is  first  sent  to  the  Grand  Vice- 
President  of  the  province  wherein  the  petitioning  body  is  situ- 
ated. It  is  then  submitted  to  the  Executive  Committee,  and  with 
their  approval  to  the  Grand  Council.  It  must  then  be  sub- 
mitted to  the  chapters  of  all  the  provinces  and  can  only  be 
granted  by  the  two-thirds  vote  of  each  chapter  of  all  three 
provinces.  No  petition  is  submitted  to  vote  until  the  peti- 
tioning body  is  visited  by  the  Grand  Vice  President  of 
the  province  or  her  Deputy.  The  petition  must  receive  the 
unanimous  favor  of  the  Grand  Council  before  it  can  be  submitted 
to  the  chapters. 

No  charter  can  be  withdrawn  excepting  by  act  of  a  National 
Convention. 

Vacancies  in  office  between  conventions  are  filled  by  vote  of 
the  Grand  Council. 

Grand  Council 

The  First  National  Convention  (1893)  worked  according  to 
the   existing   original  constitution   and   elected  but   five   Grand 

(41) 


-42  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Officers — President,  Vice  President,  Secretary,  Treasurer  and 
^Tommissioner  of  Education.  The  editor  of  the  Trident  was  not 
at  that  time  considered  a  member  of  the  Grand  Council. 

The  Second  National  Convention  (1894)  added  that  office 
to  the  Grand  Council  list,  making  it  have  six  members. 

The  burdens  of  administration  having  materially  increased 
with  the  rapid  growth  of  the  fraternity,  the  Third  National  Con- 
vention (1897)  made  the  number  of  Vice  Presidents  three,  one 
for  each  province,  added  a  Grand  Marshal  and  a  Grand  Histor- 
ian and  dropped  the  office  of  Commissioner  of  Education.  The 
duties  of  this  officer  had  been  to  maintain  a  high  standard  of 
scholarship  among  the  undergraduates  and  to  render  assistance 
to  alumnae  in  all  educational  enterprises,  and  these  duties  were 
in  a  measure  distributed  among  the  various  officials  provided. 

The  office  of  Commissioner  of  Education  was  one  of  the 
things  adopted  from  the  plans  of  Etta  May  Budd  for  her  nat- 
ional sorority  which  she  had  given  up,  joining  Alpha  Chapter  of 
Delta  Delta  Delta  and  allying  with  the  fraternity  her  two  partially 
formed  chapters  at  Ames  and  Indianola,  Iowa. 

An  Executive  Committee  was  created  in  1904,  consisting  of 
the  Grand  President,  the  three  Grand  Vice  Presidents  and  the 
^Grand  Secretary. 

Nine  members  constituted  the  number  of  the  Grand  Council 
until  the  Seventh  National  Convention,  when  a  tenth  member, 
known  as  a  Supervisor  of  Alliances,  was  added  to  the  number. 
A  larger  use  of  the  privilege  of  appointing  deputies  is  being  made 
each  year,  as  the  work  falling  upon  each  grand  officer,  as  the  or- 
ganization grows  and  perfects  its  system,  is  becoming  too  heavy 
to  be  carried  by  one  person. 

In  intensive  development,  in  government,  in  finances,  every- 
thing points  to  more  thoroughly  perfected  business  methods. 

Provinces 

The  Provinces  of  the  fraternity  are  directly  under  the  super- 
vision of  the  Province  Vice  Presidents.  But  one  change  has  ever 
been  made  in  province  distribution  and  that  affected  but  one 
-chapter,  Xi,  changing  it  from  Beta  to  Alpha  province. 

A  portion  of  the  idea  of  province  arrangement  came  from 
.the  plans  of  Miss  Etta  May  Budd.    The  idea  of  holding  province 


CHARTER  GRANTS.  45 

conventions  was  originated  at  the  First  National  Convention 
(1893)  and  so  far  as  the  delegates  there  knew  was  an  original 
idea,  they  working  out  this  plan  in  order  to  overcome  the  diffi- 
culties apprehended  from  a  system  of  Tri-ennial  National  Con- 
ventions, then  planned  for.  These  province  conventions  held  in 
1895,  1898  and  1899  were  greatly  enjoyed  and  the  plan  was  onlv 
abandoned  because  of  the  necessity  of  bi-ennial  nationals  and  the 
feeling  that  too  great  a  strain  must  not  be  put  either  upon  the 
finances  or  the  energies  of  the  chapters.  Besides  the  regular 
official  duties  that  come  to  the  province  officer,  the  Grand  Vice 
President,  it  is  the  custom  for  her  to  keep  up  constant  communica- 
tion between  her  chapters  by  means  of  Province  Round  Robin 
letters. 

The  province  distribution  of  chapters  is  as  follows:

Charter  Grants 

The  granting  of  charters  was  one  of  the  prerogatives  of  the 
founders  of  the  fraternity  and  Alpha  Chapter  until  the  first  con- 
vention. The  first  two  conventions  did  not  do  much  to  make 
any  general  rulings  to  limit  this  power,  feeling  perhaps 
that  it  was  for  the  best  interest  of  so  young  a  so- 
ciety to  leave  it  in  their  hands.  The  Third  National 
Convention     originated     a     plan     whereby     all     had     a     voice 


44  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

in  the  matter.  Conventions  had  the  right  to  grant  charters 
until  the  Seventh,  1906,  revoked  this  ruling.  But  one  conven- 
tion, the  Sixth,  1906,  ever  granted  any  charters. 

Twenty-five  charters  have  been  granted,  one  of  which  was 
never  operated  under.  One  charter  was  surrendered  to  the 
Fourth  National  Convention,  twenty-three  are  at  present  in 
operation. 

Charter  fees  have  been  thrice  raised.  Petitioning  bodies 
must  bear  all  the  incurred  expenses,  including  a  special  personal 
inspection. 

While  there  have  been  twenty-five  charters  granted,  more 
than  double  that  number  have  been  rejected.  Nine  were  await- 
ing decision  at  the  time  of  the  Seventh  National  Convention, 
none  of  which  has  as  yet  received  a  final  vote.  Many  of  the  pe- 
titioning bodies  not  granted  charters  from  Delta  Delta  Delta 
have  since  received  charters  from  well  known  sororities. 

It  may  be  said  that  the  history  of  charter  grants  could 
be  divided  into  three  sections,  but  of  course  these  sections  so 
overlap  that  no  dividing  line  is  absolute.  As  is  the  case  with 
every  progressive  new  society,  the  first  officers  and  early  chapters 
watched  for  desirable  fields  and  generally  followed  the  policy  of 
choosing  those  petitioning  bodies  who  were  already  organized 
into  a  local  of  recognized  strength.  Personal  friends,  usually 
Greeks  themselves,  were  very  active  in  locating  such  fields  and 
the  records,  which  are  perhaps  better  unpublished,  show  many  a 
curious  and  interesting  relation  of  such  aid. 

In  the  next  stage  of  progress,  while  no  effort  was  made  to 
search  for  opportunities,  yet  the  high  grade  school  and  a  well 
recommended  group  were  pretty  sure  of  favorable  consideration. 
In  the  last  period,  however,  petitions  for  charters  have  sometimes 
been  pending  several  years  and  in  a  few  cases  only  have  been 
granted  when  received  a  second  and  a  third  time.  Not  only  has 
it  been  imperative  to  have  a  school  of  highest  standing,  with  the 
most  desirable  students  as  petitioners,  but  questions  of  policy  and 
location  have  made  it  possible  to  select  but  few  of  these. 

Alumnae  Alliances 

"The  Alliance  as  an  organization  has  its  own  constitution, 
by-laws  and  ritual  and  holds  special  sessions  at  each  national 
convention  to  discuss  and  legislate  upon  all  subjects  relating  to 


•       EXAMINATIONS.  45 

alliances  only  which  are  not  provided  for  in  the  constitution. 
Each  Alliance  is  allowed  a  delegate  to  the  national  convention 
and  there  is  allowed  equal  voting  powers  with  the  active  dele- 
gates. No  Alliance  can  be  formed  with  fewer  than  six  members. 
The  object  of  the  Alliances  is  to  keep  in  touch  with  the  active 
chapters  and  the  sisters  of  college  days  by  personal  contact  where 
possible,  by  a  series  of  letters  or  bulletins  where  this  can  not  be 
done.  Literary  programs,  musicales,  contributions  to  house 
funds,  fraternity  study,  an  occasional  lecture,  a  little  philanthrop- 
ic work  are  special  objects.  Recently  an  Alliance  officer  has  been 
appointed  whose  especial  duty  is  the  study  of  the  needs  of  the 
Alliance  Chapters  and  the  advisability  of  establishing  i.ew  ones. ' 
—The  Trident  (Ed.),  Vol.  XV,  No.  3. 

Examinations 

Official  examination  on  fraternity  history  and  management 
is  held  in  each  chapter  on  the  second  Saturday  in  March.  The 
question  list  and  grading  are  in  the  hands  of  a  Board  of  Super- 
visors appointed  by  the  Grand  President.  The  Grand  Marshal 
publishes  the  record  of  the  examinations  in  the  Trident. 

These  examinations  have  been  conducted  annually  since 
1898,  and  it  was  the  custom  to  require  each  member  to  take  them 
but  once,  provided  each  first  year  initiate  secured  a  satisfactory 
grade.  The  Seventh  National  Convention  provided  for  an  exam- 
ination to  be  given  each  member  twice  during  the  college  course. 
The  freshmen  are  examined  upon  ritual,  chapter  roll  and  consti- 
tution, the  juniors  upon  policy,  methods,  Pan-Hellenics,  Inter- 
Sorority  Conferences  and  questions  on  other  fraternities.  All 
grades  of  members  taking  examinations  are  published  in  the 
Triton.  I 


FINANCES. 


An  outline  of  the  evolution  of  the  financial  system  of  Delta 
Delta  Delta  could  be  no  better  begun  than  by  quoting  again  the 
words  of  one  of  the  founders  and  making  them  apply  not  only  to 
the  organizers  and  early  members  of  Alpha  but  to  the  Grand 
Officers  of  the  earlier  Councils  and  to  the  charter  member  groups , 
of  all  the  earlier  chapters.  "How  well  they  have  kept  their  vows, 
there  are  many  to  testify,  but  how  unstintingly  they  gave  of  .their 
money,  time  and  strength  will  never  be  known." 

In  the  earliest  days  of  chapter  extension,  all  central  expen- 
ses were  borne  by  the  founders  and  members  of  Alpha  Chapter, 
some  matters  being  paid  by  direct  tax,  the  others  silently  liqui- 
dated from  private  purses.  The  charges  for  charter,  pin,  station- 
ery and  installation  officers'  expenses  were  the  only  amounts 
charged  up  to  the  respective  chapters.  The  first  regular  levy 
made  upon  the  chapters  was  the  demand  for  subscriptions  to 
The  Trident,  which  appeared  November,  1891.  The  first  con- 
vention endeavored  to  ensure  the  Trident  income,  the  second  fol- 
lowed suit,  but  it  was  not  until  the  third  convention,  1897,  that 
any  effective  steps  were  taken  to  formulate  a  plan  for  collecting 
enough  subscription  money  to  run  the  magazine  and  thus  some- 
what relieve  Miss  Allen  (Editor  in  Chief),  her  business  manag- 
ers and  Alpha  Chapter.  This  convention  levied  a  per  capita  as- 
sessment on  each  chapter  for  the  support  of  the  Trident  and 
placed  its  collection  in  the  hands  of  the  Grand  Marshal.  Up  to 
this  time  (1897),  all  Grand  Officers'  expenses  had  been  borne  by 
themselves  and  all  the  official  delegates  for  the  fraternity  at  large 
had  been  obliged  to  pay  their  own  bills  in  addition  to  giving 
their  time  and  labor.  The  Chapters  either  paid  or  assisted  in 
paying  their  delegate's  convention  traveling  expenses  and  this 
it  was  thought  accounted  for  many  irregularities  in  represent- 
ation. Therefore,  this  third  convention  also  levied  a  general  an- 
nual per  capita  tax  known  as  Grand  Dues  and  provided  that  the 
traveling  expenses  of  the  active  chapter  delegates  and  of  the 
Grand  President,  Grand  Secretary  and  Editor  of  the  Trident  be 

(46)

thereafter  paid  out  of  the  general  fund.  It  also  awarded  $100.00 
to  the  entertaining  chapter  of  each  convention.  The  grand  dues 
were  raised  by  the  fourth  convention  to  make  provision  for  a 
wider  range  of  representation,  as  more  widely  separated  chapters 
were  admitted  and  the  name  of  the  Grand  Treasurer  was  added 
to  the  list  whose  traveling  expenses  came  out  of  the  general  fund. 

The  Fifth  Convention  facing  the  one  small  deficit  in  the 
history  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  again  made  a  slight  increase  in  the 
dues.  The  Sixth  Convention  raised  the  dues  of  both  active  and 
Alliance  members  and  also  levied  a  per  capita  tax  for  visiting 
delegate's  fund  which  was  held  separate  and  does  not  appear  in 
balances.  During  most  of  this  time,  it  is  well  to  state  that  the 
Trident  was  paying  its  own  way  and  that  these  increases  were 
occasioned  both  by  the  growth  of  the  organization  and  the  more 
accurate  methods  employed  in  transacting  its  affairs. 

The  Seventh  Convention,  finding  a  good  surplus  in  the  treas- 
ury, left  the  dues  as  they  were  with  the  exception  of  placing  the 
special  visiting  delegate  assessment  and  fund  with  the  regular 
dues  and  funds*.  Provision  was  made  whereby  a  portion  of  the 
Alliance'  delegate's  traveling  expenses  will  come  out  of  the  gen- 
eral fund. 

A  motion  was  passed  to  increase  the  amount  of  the  conven- 
tion fund  for  each  entertaining  chapter  and  provision  was  made 
for  proportionate  increases  in  this  amount  concurrent  with  chap- 
ter extension.  This  convention  also  very  materially  raised  the 
charter  fees.     This  was  the  fourth  change  in  these. 

As  it  was  reported  that  the  Trident  had  passed  from  a  mere- 
ly self  supporting  to  a  reasonably  paying  enterprise,  provisions 
were  made  for  the  payment  of  a  salary  to  the  Editor-in-Chief. 
This  salary  is  variable,  being  a  percentage  of  the  profits.  The 
Editor  pays  for  her  own  business  management  out  of  this  salary. 

Thus  has  begun  a  transition  from  that  condition  so  prevalent 
in  women's  societies  where  not  only  the  burden  of  the  labor  and 
responsibility  is  borne,  as  it  always  must  be,  by  a  very  few  but 
the  expense  as  well  is  allowed  to  drain  heavily  a  few  private 
purses,  when  it  would  be  but  a  light  tax  if  assumed  by  all  those 
benefited.  Each  one  of  the  seventeen  hundred  initiates  will  be 
proud  to  know  that  each  step  has  steadily  advanced  the  fraternity 
toward  a  goal  of  fair  and  equal  representation  and  taxation,  accu- 
rate and  perfected  business  methods  and  eventually  it  is  hoped  as 


48  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

far  as  actual  outlay  is  concerned,  to  realize  an  absolutely  self 
supporting  system. 

The  magnitude  of  the  labors  of  love  already  accomplished 
for  Tri  Delta  is  indeed  beyond  computation  and  all  of  the  future 
of  couise  depends  on  an  equal  devotion  of  its  members,  a  devo- 
tion which  must  of  necessity  be  its  own  reward. 

Finances  of  the  Individual  Chapters 

Beyond  the  apportioning  of  the  Grand  Dues  and  Trident 
assessments,  the  individual  chapters  are  left  to  conduct  their  busi- 
ness affairs  for  themselves,  simply  being  required  to  submit  an  an- 
nual report.  It  is  gratifying  to  be  able  to  state  that  in  June, 
1906,  not  a  single  chapter  had  a  deficit  to  report  and  that  sev- 
eral chapters  either  reported  balances  or  the  establishment  of  en- 
dowment funds.  The  financial  reports  of  but  nineteen  chapters 
are  at  hand  and  give  an  aggregate  sum  of  $10,086.00  as  the  year's 
income.  But  three  of  these  report  as  small  an  income  as  $100.00 
per  year,  thirteen  of  these  vary  from  $125.00  to  $500.00  per 
year,  two  report  in  excess  of  $1000.00,  while  one  chapter,  run- 
ning a  chapter  House,  shows  total  book  accounts  of  $3400.25. 


VISITING  DELEGATE 


Probably  two  things  impressed  the  Grand  Council  of  1900- 
1902  with  the  advisability  of  making  provision  for  a  visiting  dele- 
gate in  the  government  system  of  Delta  Delta  Delta. 

In  the  first  place  for  several  years  it  was  required  that  all 
petitioning  bodies  be  personally  investigated  by  some  officially 
appointed  and  experienced  member,  if  possible  one  on  the  Grand 
Council  at  that  time — preferably  the  Grand  Vice  President  of 
that  province  in  which  the  petitioners  were  located.  The  bene- 
rits  of  such  visits  had  thus  been  manifested  in  this  work. 

In  the  second  place  the  plan  of  having  an  official  visiting 
member  was  being  tried  with  success  in  other  fraternities. 

After  the  subject  had  been  properly  presented  and  fully  dis- 
cussed, the  Boston  Convention,  (Fifth  National,  1903),  tabled  a 
motion  to  institute  such  an  office  and  appointed  a  committee  to 
estimate  the  expenses  that  such  an  officer  would  incur.  More 
special  inspection  work  came  up  to  be  done  between  1902  and 
1904  than  ever  before. 

At  the  Galesburg  Convention,  (Sixth  National,  1904),  it  was 
moved  and  carried  "that  Tri  Delta  have  a  visiting  delegate  who 
shall  visit  each  chapter  once  in  two  years  and  that  the  Grand 
President  be  this  visiting  delegate  and  if  she  finds  herself  un- 
able to  act,  she  shall  appoint  such  delegate."  To  meet  the  ex- 
penses of  such  office,  a  per  capita  tax  of  fifty  cents  on  both  active 
and  Alliance  members  was  levied.  For  a  few  months  after  con- 
vention, the  work  of  inspecting  petitioning  bodies  and  chapters 
first  on  the  list  was  undertaken  by  the  Grand  President  or  by 
special  deputies  appointed  by  her  but  it  was  soon  realized  that 
the  work  would  be  of  greater  value  if  all  inspections  were  made 
by  the  same  person,  and  the  Grand  President,  Mrs.  Leutscher, 
being  unable  to  undertake  a  task  of  such  magnitude,  appointed  to 
the  office,  R.  Louise  Fitch,  of  Epsilon,  but  recently  elected  Editor- 
in-Chief  of  The  Trident. 

It  is  interesting  here  to  note  the  peculiar  coincidence  that 
nearly  three  years  before,  as  the  delegate  of  Epsilon  to  the  Fifth

50  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

National  Convention,  Boston,  Miss  Fitch  had  made  the  original 
motion  that  Delta  Delta  Delta  institute  the  custom  of  having  a 
visiting  delegate.  Now  it  fell  to  her  lot  to  make  the  first  com- 
plete round  of  personal  inspections  in  the  history  of  the  Society. 
The  cost  of  the  inspecting  tour  was  considerably  less  than  esti- 
mated. She  inspected  twenty-two  active  chapters,  Chi  being 
omitted  as  it  had  so  recently  been  inspected  and  installed  and 
she  had  been  present  at  the  initiation  installation.  She  visited 
ten  Alliances  and  three  Alumnae  groups  which  have  become 
Alliances  and  investigated  three  petitioning  bodies.  Great 
interest  was  manifested  in  her  report  at  the  Syracuse  Conven- 
tion, and  on  every  side  one  heard  intense  enthusiasm  over  and 
appreciation  of  her  work  expressed  by  the  delegates.  The  con- 
vention, recognizing  the  full  value  of  such  a  unifying  and  system- 
atizing method,  continued  the  office  under  an  improved  financial 
aspect. 

Report  of  First  Chapter  Inspector. 

It  is  quite  impossible  to  give  a  detailed  account  of  the  results 
of  the  visits  of  the  first  Chapter  Inspector,  for  all  the  information 
relative  to  conditions  at  the  time  of  each  visit  has  been  reported 
simply  to  the  Council  and  it  is  thought  advisable  to  keep  it  in  the 
Council.  However,  a  brief  account  of  the  trip  and  the  methods 
employed  to  obtain  desired  information  may  be  of  interest. 

The  first  Chapter  visited  was  Upsilon,  at  Northwestern  Uni- 
versity, Evanston,  111.  This  was  in  May,  1905.  From  there  I 
went  to  Columbus,  Ohio,  to  visit  Nu  Chapter ;  then  to  Cincinnati, 
Ohio,  where  Zeta  is.  At  the  request  of  two  locals  in  that  vicinity 
I  visited  each  of  them  for  several  days.  In  October,  Mu,  at 
Madison,  Wisconsin,  was  visited,  and  a  petitioning  group  in  that 
vicinity.  In  November,  I  spent  several  days  with  Phi,  at  Iowa 
City;  in  December,  with  Theta,  at  University  of  Minnesota, 
Minneapolis.  January  8th,  1906,  I  started  west,  visiting  in  or- 
der, Delta,  at  Simpson  College,  Indianola,  Iowa;  Kappa  at  Uni- 
versity of  Nebraska,  Lincoln,  Neb ;  Lambda,  at  Baker  University, 
Baldwin,  Kansas;  the  Denver  Alliance,  at  Denver,  Colo.,  and 
then  took  a  couple  of  days'  rest  or  at  least  of  change,  at  the  Grand 
Canyon,  in  Arizona.  Then  on  to  Pi,  at  University  of  California, 
at  Berkeley,  Calif.,  and  down  to  Los  Angeles  to  see  the  Alliance

there.  At  Pasadena,  cares  were  forgotten  for  a  week  in  enjoy- 
ing the  mountains  and  the  side  trips  to  the  ocean.  I  reached 
Galva,  111.,  again  on  March  1st,  and  visited  Epsilon,  Knox  Col- 
lege, Galesburg,  111.,  the  second  week  in  March.  I  started  east 
March  23rd  and  visited  in  order,  Gamma,  at  Adrian,  Mich.,  Omi- 
cron,  at  Syracuse,  N.  Y. ;  Beta  at  Canton,  N.  Y. ;  Eta  at  Burling- 
ton, Vt. ;  Alpha,  at  Boston.  After  a  four  days'  rest,  I  visited  Sigma, 
at  Wesleyan  University,  at  Middletown,  Conn. ;  Rho  at  Barnard 
College,  New  York  City;  Tau  at  Bucknell  University,  Lewis- 
burg,  Penn. ;  Psi,  at  University  of  Pennsylvania,  Philadelphia ; 
Xi,  at  Woman's  College,  Baltimore,  Md. ;  and  last  the  youngest 
chapter,  Alpha  Xi  at  Randolph  Macon  Woman's  College,  Lynch- 
burg, Va.     Left  for  Galva,  111.,  May  25th. 

As  far  as  possible,  four  days  were  spent  with  each  chapter. 
In  that  time,  at  each  school,  some  social  affair,  tea,  reception, 
card  party  or  something  of  the  kind  was  given  at  which  I  was 
enabled  to  meet  the  members  of  all  rival  Sororities  in  the  insti- 
tution. Dinners,  drives,  theatres,  dances,  receptions,  chafing 
dish  spreads,  luncheons,  some  or  all  were  given  at  each  chapter, 
to  enable  me  to  meet  all  active  members  and  Alumnae,  and  in 
some  cases  gentlemen  friends  of  each  chapter,  socially.  During 
each  visit  a  regular  chapter  meeting  and  also  a  regular  Alliance 
meeting  (where  an  Alliance  existed)  were  held  and  regular  busi- 
ness conducted  in  the  ordinary  way.  Every  chapter  book  was 
examined,  plans  and  policy  of  chapter,  characteristics  and 
strength  of  rivals,  house  finances  and  methods  of  meeting  bills 
for  house  or  room,  for  Grand  and  Chapter  dues  were  discussed. 

At  every  school,  I  was  privileged  to  meet  the  President  or 
Dean  and  talk  over  fraternity  affairs.  At  every  institution  ex- 
cept one  I  was  allowed  to  obtain  the  grades  for  the  previous  or 
present  year,  as  I  chose,  in  some  cases  for  the  entire  course  for 
each  member.  In  the  excepted  school,  I  was  informed  that  no 
one,  under  any  provocation  whatsoever,  could  be  allowed  to  ob- 
tain any  idea  regarding  the  standing  of  any  student. 

In  several  instances,  at  the  invitation  of  the  Local  Pan-Hel- 
lenic Association,  I  was  asked  to  talk  Pan-Hellenic  matters  with 
the  association  and  give  what  ideas  I  had  gathered  regarding 
rules  and  conditions  in  other  schools.  I  met  the  Dean  of  Women 
at  each  school,  where  such  an  official  exists,  at  her  request,  and 
talked  over  conditions  among  the  college  women  and  how  the 


52  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

sororities  might  be  of  service  to  college  authorities  in  bettering 
conditions,  etc. 

Every  spare  moment  was  spent  talking,  planning  with  chap- 
ter officers  and  members,  discussing  national  affairs,  hearing 
troubles,  suggesting  remedies,  planning  for  everything,  from 
keeping  books  and  financing  houses  to  "rushing  stunts."  At  each 
school  the  chapter  was  urged  strongly  to  do  everything  possible 
to  promote  Pan-Hellenic  interests  and  to  aid  in  college  organiz- 
ation and  interests.  Each  was  urged  also  to  mix  wisely  social 
and  intellectual  accomplishments.  In  every  instance,  rival  fra- 
ternities were  delightfully  cordial  and  hospitable.  At  Madison, 
Kappa  Kappa  Gamma,  at  Lincoln,  Kappa  Alpha  Theta,  and  at 
Berkeley,  Kappa  Alpha  Theta  sent  invitations  to  dinner  to  the 
chapter  house,  each  of  which  was  happily  accepted.  A  number 
of  Grand  Officers  of  Kappa  Alpha  Theta,  of  Kappa  Kappa 
Gamma,  Delta  Gamma  and  Chi  Omega  were  met  at  various 
places  and. the  little  exchange  of  experiences  was  exceedingly  en- 
joyable. 

The  task  of  visiting  the  chapters  is  not  a  light  one.  The 
social  side  alone  is  wearing,  though  pleasant,  and  the  energy  nec- 
essary to  judge  quickly  and  fairly,  ferret  out  true  conditions,  be 
ready  with  solutions  for  any  kind  of  problem,  to  go  with  but 
little  or  no  sleep,  catch  trains  at  any  hour  of  day  or  night,  etc. — 
this  energy  expended  is  incalculable.  But  if,  as  is  hoped,  the 
greater  possibilities  of  usefulness  for  fraternity  members  is  real- 
ized, if  system  and  order  prevail,  if  more  enthusiasm  is  aroused 
and  interest  increased,  then  the  first  visiting  delegate  will  feel 
that  the  discomfitures  and  hard  work  are  more  than  repaid.

PUBLICATIONS  OF 
DELTA  DELTA  DELTA 


The  Trident 

It  has  been  stated  that  no  fraternity  has  attempted  the  pub- 
lication of  a  regular  magazine  so  early  in  its  history  and  with  its 
strength  so  untried  as  Tri  Delta.  Be  that  as  it  may,  conceding 
that  the  making  of  the  attempt  was  brave,  the  degree  of  success 
has  proved  the  attempt  well  warranted. 

After  the  first  Inter-Sorority  conference,  held  in  Boston,  in 
1891,  a  conference  of  Tri  Deltas  present  was  called  by  Alpha 
Chapter  for  April  20.  The  entire  active  chapter  of  Alpha  was 
present  and  some  of  its  alumnae.  Delta  Chapter  was  represent- 
ed by  Edith  Noon  and  Gamma  Chapter  by  Bessie  M.  Leach. 
This  was  the  first  meeting  of  representatives  from  more  than  two 
chapters  in  the  history  of  the  fraternity.  It  was  then  and  there 
decided  that  Delta  Delta  Delta  should  begin  the  publication  of  a 
magazine  to  be  known  as  the  Trident.  Emily  Frances  Allen,  of 
Alpha,  was  elected  Editor-in-Chief.  It  was  voted  to  complete 
one  volume  each  year,  that  volume  to  consist  of  three  numbers, 
one  issued  each  term.  It  was  decided  to  publish  the  first  number 
of  the  first  volume  on  Thanksgiving  Day,  1891,  that  being  the 
third  anniversary  of  the  founding  of  the  fraternity. 

This  was  done  and  since  that  date  but  one  number  has  ever 
been  omitted,  that  being  number  three  of  Volume  II.  It  is  su- 
perfluous to  say  that  this  was  owing  to  lack  of  funds,  as  from 
other  records  it  will  be  seen  that  the  magazine  enterprise  was 
launched  when  the  fraternity  had  but  six  widely  scattered  chap- 
ters, that  it  then  had  but  eight  and  that  the  first  convention  had 
not  yet  been  called. 

The  Trident  has  always  been  issued  in  its  present  form, 
octavo.; ,  The  first  number  contained  thirty-four  pages.  Four 
volumes  of  three  numbers  each  (omitting  Vol.  II,  No.  3.)  of  this 
size  were  issued.     With  Volume  V  the  publication  of  four  num- 

(53) 


54  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

bers  for  each  volume  was  commenced.  Volume  VII  saw  an  in- 
crease to  fifty  pages  per  number  and  since  that  time  to  the  just 
completed  Volume  XVI  the  quality  of  press  work,  paper,  binding 
and  illustration  have  been  steadily  advanced  as  well  as  the  num- 
ber of  pages.  Volume  XVI,  No.  3  is  the  largest  yet  issued  and 
contained  120  pages. 

The  Trident  remained  with  Alpha  Chapter,  Emily  Frances 
Allen,  Editor-in-Chief,  through  nine  volumes.  To  anyone  famil- 
iar with  the  history  of  fraternity  journalism,  need  more  be  said? 

At  the  Cincinnati  convention,  Miss  Allen  positively  refused 
a  re-election.  At  two  successive  conventions  she  had  been  able 
to  report  a  balance  in  the  treasury  and  the  fact  was  keenly  real- 
ized by  all  that  nine  years  of  unflagging  zeal  and  loyalty  on  the 
part  of  the  Editor-in-Chief  and  her  co-workers  had  not  only 
created  an  assured  future  for  the  magazine  but  had  exemplified 
past  all  telling  the  true  Tri  Delta  spirit. 

The  fourth  National  Convention  elected  Julia  E.  Closterman, 
Editor  of  the  Trident  and  placed  its  management  with  her  chap- 
ter, Zeta,  of  the  University  of  Cincinnati.  Volumes  X  and  XI 
were  very  satisfactorily  edited  under  this  management.  The 
fifth  National  convention  re-elected  Miss  Closterman  but  she  was 
unable  to  continue  in  the  work  and  later  the  Grand  Council  elect- 
ed E.  Anna  Harrison,  Editor-in-Chief  and  placed  the  manage- 
ment with  Xi  Chapter  at  the  Woman's  College  of  Baltimore,  Md. 

Volumes  XII  and  XIII  evidence  the  wisdom  of  this  choice. 
Miss  Harrison,  who  was  re-elected  Editor  of  the  Trident  by  the 
sixth  National  convention,  being  unable  to  complete  her  term  re- 
signed and  was  succeeded  by  her  Assistant  Editor,  Mary  Taylor 
Abercrombie,  of  Xi.  She  succeeded  nicely  with  Volume  XIV, 
but  resigned  the  task  to  R.  Louise  Fitch,  of  Epsilon  Chapter,  and 
she  as  Editor  was  also  commissioned  to  undertake  the  business 
management  of  the  magazine. 

To  quote  the  policy  of  the  Editor  verbatim  from  a  recent 
letter  will  give  enough  reasons  why  the  seventh  National  con- 
vention elected  her  unanimously  for  this  position  in  1906-1908 
and  under  such  improved  conditions  of  management  and  finances 
as  are  explained  elsewhere. 

"My  policy,  in  so  far  as  it  is  possible  to  define  it,  in  editing 
the  Trident,  calls  first  for  system.     In  this  is  included  strict  busi-

ness  methods,  which  comprise  closely  paid  and  collected  bills, 
promptness,  accuracy  and  courtesy  in  all  dealings. 

As  to  the  Trident  itself,  the  mechanical  construction  receives 
first  attention.  The  material  is  arranged  in  departments,  for  the 
sake  of  the  convenience  and  benefit  of  the  readers.  Articles  are 
headed  attractively,  cuts  printed  on  clear,  good  quality  paper,  at- 
tention is  paid  to  division  and  paging  of  articles,  so  that  when 
the  magazine  is  picked  up  it  at  once  inspires  in  the  holder  an 
eagerness  to  read  it. 

Next — material  is  devoted  primarily  to  the  interests  of  Delta 
Delta  Delta,  then  to  general  fraternity  news  and  problems,  and 
then  to  general  college  news,  for  in  a  measure  college  and  fra- 
ternity affairs  are  inseparable. 

The  Trident  is  a  newspaper  in  so  far  as  it  is  possible  to 
chronicle  the  doings  of  any  and  all  Tri-Deltas.  Each  number 
is  to  contain  a  carefully  prepared  "leading  article,"  which  is  of 
special  value  from  a  news  or  an  educational  standpoint,  to  the  fra- 
ternity. Each  is  to  contain  some  bit  of  brightness,  a  humorous 
poem,  a  sketch,  an  incident,  a  rollicking  song,  something  that 
cheers  and  amuses.  Chapter  letters  in  so  far  as  it  is  possible  to 
train  the  writers  thereof,  are  to  be  void  of  monotony  and  super- 
latives, or  speaking  positively,  are  to  contain,  if  possible,  origin- 
ality, tersely  expressed  recitals  of  conditions  at  each  college  and 
chapter,  that  are  at  once  instructive  and  entertaining.  Certain 
issues  are  to  be  devoted  to  special  purposes,  to  the  alumnae  in- 
terests, to  the  honors  of  Tri  Deltas,  to  the  Fraternity's  history, 
to  the  writings  of  talented  members,  etc. 

Summing  up — My  policy  is  to  produce  a  magazine  that  will 
be  indespensible  in  news  and  enthusiasm  and  general  fraternity 
instructiveness  to  any  loyal  member  of  the  Fraternity. 

R.  Louise  Fitch,  Epsilon,  '02. 

The  cover  design  of  Volume  X  and  XI  was  the  original 
work  of  Lavina  Perin  Gray  of  Zeta.  The  credit  of  the  present 
cover  design,  which  was  adopted  with  Volume  XV,  also  goes  to 
Zeta  as  both  this  and  the  sketches  used  inside  for  department 
headings  are  again  the  work  of  Lavina  Perin  Gray. 

In  making  out  a  table  of  contents  for  the  Trident  no  account 
is  made  of  the  regular  departments  which  exist  in  them  all — 
Chapter  Letters,  Alliance  Letters,  Personals,  Editorials,  and  Ex- 
changes.    These  departments  have  been  variously  handled  but  at

present  follow  the  general  literary  matter  in  the  magazine  and 
are  very  ably  ordered  and  divided  as  follows — Incidents,  Editor- 
ials, Chapter  Letters,  Alliance  Letters,  Personals,  Marriages,  En- 
gagements, Initiates,  Births,  In  Memoriam,  Exchanges. 

With  the  present  volume,  there  began  a  slight  change 
from  the  idea  of  a  quarterly,  the  magazine  appearing  four  times 
during  the  school  year,  November,  February,  April  and  June. 

As  noticed  elsewhere,  the  old  plan  of  placing  the  business 
management  with  the  Chapter  of  the  Editor-in-Chief  has  been 
abandoned.  During  1905-6,  the  plan  of  combining  Editor-in- 
Chief  and  Business  Manager  in  one  person  was  so  successful  that 
the  Convention  of  1906  sanctioned  and  continued  the  custom.

EDITORIAL. 


In  response  to  often  expressed  desires  from  members  of  the  sev- 
eral chapters  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  for  a  journal  to  represent  the 
interests  of  the  fraternity,  we  begin  the"  publication  of  the  Trident.1 
Other  Greek  letter  societies  have  found  such  publications  beneficial, 
and  it  is  to  be  hoped  that  this  new  venture  will  prove  advantageous 
to  the  organization  in  which  we  take  a  proper  pride.  It  shall  be 
our  aim  to  foster  among  the  members  still  stronger  allegiance  to 
the  "gold,  silver  and  blue  ;"  to  cultivate  higher  literary  aspirations, 
and  to  develop,  by  means  of- the  fraternity,  an  increased  sentiment 
of  loyalty  to  our  respective  colleges.  While  seeking  mainly  to  pro- 
mote the  interests  of  Tri  Delta  and  fraternity  life  in  general,  con- 
siderable space  will  be  devoted  to  college  affairs,  and  to  matters 
pertaining  to  the  higher  education  of  women,  Although  the  man- 
agement will  endeavor  to  accomplish  these  objects,  success  implies 
and  demands  the  hearty  co-operation  of  individual  members  through- 
out the  order. 

We  are  grateful  for  the  many  kind  wishes  that  have  been 
expressed,  for  the  subscriptions  and  the  contributions  to  the  pages 
of  this  first  number.  It  will  be  necessary,  however,  to  furnish 
these  contributions  regularly,  and  alumni,  especially,  will  please 
bear  this  fact  in  mind. 

This  initial  number  falls  far  below  our  ideal  in  many  particulars, 
but  we  have  made  a  beginning.  We  would  avail  ourselves  gladly 
of  friendly  criticisms  and  suggestions  in  regard  to  future  issues  of 
the  quarterly.

Triton 

The  Seventh  National  Convention  authorized  the  publication 
of  a  Private  Bulletin  to  appear  simultaneously  with  the  Trident 
and  to  be  under  the  same  management.  It  is  to  be  of  a  variable 
size,  as  occasion  demands.  To  quote  the  editor:  "Its  purpose 
is  two-'fold,  to  curtail  the  work  of  the  grand  officers  and  more 
thoroughly  to  acquaint  the  members  of  Tri  Delta  with  the  work  of 
the  Council  and  the  problems  which  continually  confront  the  fra- 
ternity. Convention,  Council  and  Chapter  reports,  suggestions 
and  directions  to  chapter  officers,  reports  on  endowment  fund ;  in 
short,  the  private  business  of  the  society  will  be  reserved  for 
these  pages."  • 

The  Executive  Committee  of  the  Grand  Council  have  be- 
stowed the  name  of  "Triton"  upon  this  secret  magazine. 

Volume  I  has  been  issued,  the  first  number  containing  twenty 
octavo  pages,  the  second,  ten,  third  thirteen,  and  the 
fourth  thirty-five.  No.  1  of  Vol.  II  is  just  issued  and  contains 
ten  pages.  Accompanying  the  second  was  a  colored  print  of  the 
new  official  flag  design,  adopted  by  the  Seventh  Convention. 

Pamphlets 

Probably  the  most  extensive  pamphlet  issued  by  the  sorority 
v.as  compiled  and  edited  in  1906  by  K.  Ccurtenay  Johnston  (Pi), 
Grand  Vice  President  of  Gamma  Province.  It  was  entitled 
"Chapter  House  Ownership"  and  reported  the  conditions  prevail-

ing  September,  1905,  in  those  universities  and  colleges  where 
chapters  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  were  located.  Besides  giving  data 
as  to  chapter  houses  or  halls  rented  or  owned  by  all  sororities  in 
these  schools  and  summarizing  the  conditions  as  reported  in 
Delta  Delta  Delta,  a  set  of  "Recommendations  for  Ownership" 
was  given,  showing  "Methods  of  Building"  and  a  synopsis  of  the 
expense  accounts  for  the  running  of  the  chapter  houses  of  Omi- 
cron,  Syracuse,  N.  Y.,  Mu,  Madison,  Wis.,  and  Pi,  Berkley,  Cal., 
(east,  central,  west)  during  October,  1905. 

Particulars  of  the  plan  of  building  the  Lambda  Chapter 
House,  Baldwin,  Kansas,  and  of  the  accumulation  of  Pi  Chapter's 
Furniture  Fund  were  also  appended. 

The  Pamphlet  contained  fourteen  octavo  pages. 

The  following  blank  reports  were  issued  for  1906  for  each 
chapter  and  alliance  and  filed  as  filled  and  read  for  convention :

Chapter  Record  Books 

By  the  order  of  the  Seventh  National  Convention,  uniform 
Chapter  Record  Books  have  been  issued  to  each  chapter. 

The  technical  description  of  the  chapter  books  is  "Flexible 
loose  leaf  binders,  with  three  rings.  Made  of  best  red  buffing 
leather,  size  9  x  11.  In  center  of  outside  cover,  stamped  in  gold, 
is  the  stamp  of  stars  and  crescent.  The  ruling  of  Treasurer's 
book  is  the  regular  ledger  ruling,  of  Historian  and  Secretary  five 
faint  (5  faint)." 

Model  record  pages  are  enclosed  in  each  Treasurer's  and  Sec- 
retary's book,  while  in  each  Historian's  book  is  a  complete  out- 
line providing  for  the  keeping  of  a  narrative  history  of  each 
year,  an  undergraduate  and  post  graduate  record  of  each  initiate 
and  tables  of  initiations,  social  functions,  college  honors,  gradua- 
tions, deaths,  marriages  and  births,  with  a  complete  index  sys- 
tem. 

An  annual  inspection  of  these  books  will  be  made  and  from 
these  records  the  chapter  officers  will  fill  their  report  blanks  foi 
the  respective  Grand  Council  Officers. 

Directories 

The  first  official  directory  of  Tri  Delta  was  published  as  an 
appendix  to  the  Trident  number  of  June,  1894,  and  was  com- 
piled by  Charlotte  E.  Joslin,  of  Alpha,  at  that  time  Grand  Sec- 
retary. This  contained  the  roll  of  eight  chapters  and  comprised 
a  list  of  two  hundted  and  thirty-six  names  with  their  addresses. 
Miss  Joslin  issued  a  separate  printed  directory  for  each  of  the 
next  three  years  and  to  the  Directory  of  1896,  a  page  of  fraternity 
statistics  was  added,  compiled  by  Sarah  Ida  Shaw  Martin,  then 
Commissioner  of  Education.  The  plan  of  this  directory  has  been 
followed  in  general  by  the  succeeding  secretaries  each  year. 

The  Directory  for  1904  contained  a  list  of  twenty-two  active 
chapters  and  the  lists  of  officers  for  nine  Alumnae  Alliances.  One 
thousand  three  hundred  and  forty  names  and  addresses  were 
listed  but  this  was  not  a  full  list  of  fraternity  membership,  as  no

names  were  given  from  the  two  defunct  chapters  or  names  whose 
addresses  were  not  obtained. 

Nine  directories  or  membership  lists  have  been  issued.  The 
Seventh  National  Convention  ordered  the  publication  of  a  direc- 
tory for  1906-1908  that  will  be  somewhat  more  of  a  catalogue 
in  nature. 

Catalogues 

A  card  catalogue  of  the  members  of  the  fraternity  was  or- 
dered by  the  Grand  Council  of  1904-1906.  This  has  been  col- 
lected and  filed  by  Grand  Marshal  Edna  Wharton  Hoch,  and  the

72  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

There  is  now  going  to  press  for  1900-1908  a  catalogue  of 
Delta  Delta  Delta  which  contains  the  usual  data  of  name,  mar- 
ried name  and  address  of  members  in  alphabetical  order  and  chap- 
ter lists,  Alumnae  Alliance  lists,  with  positions  indicated  by  marks 
and  type.  A  list  according  to  geographical  distribution  is  also 
included  and  a  map  of  the  United  States,  showing  Chapter  and 
Alliance  locations. 

Constitutions 

During  the  early  history  of  the  fraternity,  the  Constitution 
was  supplied  the  members  and  chapters  in  typewritten  copies 
only,  but  after  the  Third  National  Convention  (1897),  a  printea 
Constitution  was  issued.  This  has  been  four  times  revised  and 
reprinted,  1900,  1902,  1904,  1906. 

The  size  of  the  printed  Constitutions  has  been  12  mo.  The 
covers  of  the  first  two  were  light  blue,  lettered  in  gold,  and  bore 
three  golden  Deltas  above  and  below  lettering.  The  third  issue, 
1902,  had  yellow  covers  and  black  lettering.  The  fourth,  1904, 
was  again  bound  in  blue  and  nothing  appeared  on  the  cover  but  a 
fac-simile  of  the  badge  in  gilt.  The  fifth  issue  of  the  Constitu- 
tion, as  revised  by  the  Seventh  National  Convention  (1906),  ha-; 
just  been  issued.  It  is  bound  in  brown,  lettered  in  black  and 
contains  thirty-two  pages,  with  a  leaflet  insert  of  important  Con- 
vention rulings. 

Convention  Reports 

The  Convention  reports  have  always  been  typewritten  cop- 
ies, are  verbatim  and  issued  immediately  to  each  chapter  and 
officer.  Condensed  reports  are  published  in  the  next  number  of 
the  Trident  with  full  descriptions  of  the  accompanying  social 
events. 

All  but  two  of  the  Province  Convention  reports  were  quite 
fully  given  in  the  Trident. 

The  Seventh  National  Convention  marked  an  innovation  in 
bringing  out  Convention  reports.  The  social  features  and  the 
representation  were  reported  in  the  Trident,  while  the  verbatim 
minutes  of  the  Convention  were  printed  in  full  in  the  Triton 
(Vol.  I,  No.  1),  in  this  way  reaching  all  those  engaged  in  active 
work. 


PUBLICATIONS — RITUALS.  73 

■  >. 

Rituals 

The  ritual  work  of  the  three  degrees  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  is 
of  course  not  sent  to  the  press.  But  one  typewritten  copy  is  is- 
sued to  each  Chapter  or  Alliance. 

The  pledging  system  was  made  formal  and  binding  by  the 
issuing  of  ritual  work  for  the  Trident  or  Pledging  Degree.  The 
Stars  and  Crescent  Degree  has  been  worked  on  by  a  Ritual  Com- 
mittee at  each  Convention  but  no  integral  changes  have  ever  been 
made. 

The  ritual  for  the  Circle  or  Alliance  Degree  was  compiled  by 
practically  the  same  hands  as  the  two  former  degrees  and  has 
suffered  but  little  revision. 

A  Post  Initiation  Lecture,  prepared  by  Ida  Shaw  Martin,  has 
been  issued  to  each  chapter.  The  full  meaning  of  Tri  Delta  obli- 
gations and  the  elaborate  and  intricate  details  of  the  symbolisms 
are  therein  explained. 

Songs 

The  songs  of  Tri  Delta  had  as  their  nucleus  a  collection  made 
by  Alpha  Chapter  in  the  first  year  of  its  history.  Written  copies 
were  sent  out  to  the  first  few  chapters.  The  first  copies  con- 
tained twelve  songs. 

A  committee  on  Song  Book  has  been  at  work  through  three 
convention  periods,  collecting  the  songs  of  the  various  chapters 
and  those  from  time  to  time  published  in  the  Trident.  The  result 
of  their  labors  finally  came  into  the  hands  of  Louise  Chamberlain 
Stahn,  Xi,  who  by  her  own  efforts  and  the  untiring  assistance  of 
K.  Courtenay  Johnston,  Pi,  succeeded  on  Oct.  19,  1905,  in  send- 
ing to  the  press  the  first  Tri  Delta  Song  Book. 

The  volume  is  bound  in  blue  cloth  and  bears  its  title  in  gold, 
"Songs  of  Delta  Delta  Delta."  The  only  ornamentation  is  a  fac: 
simile  of  the  Stars  and  Crescent,  also  in  gold. 

The  volume  is  divided  into  seven  parts,  Initiation  Songs,  Em- 
blem Songs,  Songs  of  Loyalty  and  Endeavor,  In  Lighter  Vein, 
Songs  of  Friendship,  Farewell  Songs,  Reunion  Songs.  There 
are  forty-seven  songs  in  all.  Only  those  were  selected  for  this 
volume  in  which  both  music  and  words  were  deemed  suitable  and 
in  nearly  every  case  the  full  score  of  music  for  voice  and  piano 
has  been  printed.

CONVENTIONS  OF 
DELTA  DELTA  DELTA 


National 

The  first  inter-chapter  conference  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  wa.j 
held  with  Alpha  Chapter  in  Boston,  April  20th,  1891.  The  de- 
liberating body  consisted  of  the  active  Alpha  Chapter  and  dele- 
gates, Edith  Noon,  of  Delta,  and  Bessie  M.  Leach,  of  Gamma. 
The  publication  of  the  Trident  was  the  important  thing  provided 
for  at  this  time.  Emily  Frances  Allen  (Alpha)  was  elected  Ed- 
itor-in-Chief and  the  business  management  of  the  magazine  was 
placed  with  Alpha  Chapter. 

FIRST  NATIONAL  CONVENTION, 

The  First  National  Convention  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  was 
called  by  Grand  Chapter  Alpha,  to  meet  with  Epsilon  Chapter, 
at  Knox  College,  Galesburg,  Illinois,  May  24-26,  1893.  Up  to 
this  time  Alpha  Chapter  had  managed  the  affairs  of  the  national 
fraternity  under  the  supervision  of  a  Grand  President,  Sarah 
Ida  Shaw.  Looking  backward  now  this  first  Convention  looks 
like  a  small  beginning  but  it  was  an  effective  one.  But  four  of 
the  eight  chapters  were  represented  but  so  many  of  the  Epsilon 
Alumnae  were  in  attendance  that  something  over  forty  Tri  Del- 
tas were  present  at  the  sessions.  Bessie  M.  Leach,  of  Gamma, 
had  been  deputized  as  presiding  officer,  and  Patsie  Ingersoll,  of 
Epsilon,  was  elected  Secretary. 

The  Convention  revised  the  constitution,  revised  and  elab- 
orated both'  the  pledging  or  Trident  Degree,  the  Second  or  Stars 
and  Crescent  Degree,  and  provided  a  place  for  its  Alumnae  Al- 
liances already  forming,  also  officially  authorized  the  "Alumnae 
Obligation  or  Degree"  to  be  used  as  prepared  by  the  founders, 
and  this  is  now  known  as  the  Third  or  Circle  Degree.  The  Al- 
umnae work  was  placed  in  the  hands  of  Alpha  Alumnae  Alliance. 

Besides  the  election  of  the  first  grand  council  and  discus- 
sions on  cuts,  badges,  etc.,  a  convention  system  was  arranged  to 
consist  of  a  National  Convention  to  be  held  once  in  three  years,

beginning  with  1894,  and  an  annual  Province  Convention  system. 
A  tax  was  levied  for  the  support  of  the  Trident  and  the  man- 
agement of  the  same  commended. 

The  charter  of  Delta  Chapter  was  surrendered,  the  name 
of  Delta  Deuteron  changed  to  Delta,  and  the  Delta  list  affil- 
iated with  the  Delta  Deuteron  roll.  (The  change  in  the  nam- 
ing system  was  again  confirmed  by  the  Third  Convention.) 

This  convention  authorized  the  call  for  the  Second  National 
Convention,  to  be  held  with  Beta  in  1894.

first,  it  seems  that  the  following  quaint  description  from  a  local 
Galesburg  paper  will  perhaps  be  interesting  and  amusing. 

PAN-HELLENIC  RECEPTION. 
Brilliant  Display  of  Costumes  by  Those  in  Attendance. 

The  most  elaborate  social  event  of  the  season  in  fraternity  circles  was 
the  reception  held  last  evening  in  the  Armory  Hall.  Delegates  are  here 
attending  the  National  Convention  of  the  Tri  Delta  sorosis.  All  the  fra- 
ternities of  the  college  had  been  invited  to  the  reception  by  the  Epsilon 
Chapter  of  Knox,  and  showed  their  appreciation  of  the  courtesy  extended 
to  them  by  their  general  attendance.  The  guests  were  received  and  most 
heartily  welcomed  by  the  following  committee  of  Tri  Deltas : 

Miss  Greig,  wearing  yellow  silk  dress  with  lilies  of  the  valley. 

Miss  Wylie,  gray  and  white  silk. 

Miss  Matteson,  moon-on-the-lake  silk. 

Miss  Eveleth,  gray  crepe  with  red  roses. 

Miss  Berry,  green  brocade  silk  with  pink  roses. 

Miss  Leach,  white  satin. 

The  guests  began  to  assemble  shortly  after  8  o'clock  and  soon  the 
company  numbered  one  hundred  and  fifty  rich  and  handsomely  dressed 
young  people. 

Besides  the  members  of  the  different  fraternities  here  there  were, 
present  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Parley  Johnson,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  John  Comstock, 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  S.  C.  Ayers,  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Aldrich,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Ed 
Parry,  Mrs.  George  Perrin,  Mrs.  Asa  Matteson,  Mrs.  Leroy  Marsh,  Mrs. 
Alden  Marsh,  Mrs.  Egan,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Fred  Matteson,  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Frank  Matteson,  Dr.  W.  E.  Simonds,  Prof.  Pratt,  Miss  Florence  Lee, 
Mr.  Mack  Tanner,  of  Chicago,  Mr.  Weir,  of  Cambridge. 

After  spending  a  time  in  getting  acquainted  and  in  conversation,  a 
short  dance  programme  was  announced,  and  those  who  are  lovers  of  that 
amusement  found  ample  opportunity  for  enjoyment  in  the  waltz  and 
other  fancy  steps  of  the  dance.  Frappe  was  served  from  one  corner  of 
the  hall.  The  music  was  furnished  by  the  Ideal  Orchestra  of  this  city, 
and  was  all  that  any  one  could  wish,  their  playing  delighting  the  entire 
company. 

There  was  noticed  in  a  prominent  part  of  the  hall  a  beautiful  bou- 
quet of  roses  tied  with  the  Tri  Delta  colors,  the  gift  of  the  Phi  Delta 
Theta  boys  of  the  college. 

The  dancing  closed  about  1  o'clock,  and  the  guests  prepared  to  leave 
all  congratulating  the  Tri  Deltas  for  the  royal  treatment  and  general 
good  time  they  had  made  it  possible  for  their  friends  to  enjoy  on  that 
long  to  be  remembered  occasion. 

The  delegates  left  this  morning  and  there  were  a  large  number  of  the 
Tri  Deltas  and  other  friends  at  the  depot  to  bid  the  visiting  delegates 
good  bye. 

SECOND  NATIONAL  CONVENTION. 

The  second  National  Convention  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  as- 
sembled in  the  Chapter  rooms  of  Beta  Chapter  at  St.  Lawrence 
University,  Canton,  N.  Y.,  Oct.  18th,  1894.  In  the  absence  of 
the  Grand  President,  Grand  Secretary  Charlotte  E.  Joslin  called 
the  meeting  to  order  and  organization  was  effected  by  electing 


SECOND   NATIONAL   CONVENTION.  79 

Charlotte  E.  Joslin,  chairman,  and  Emily  F.  Allen,  (Editor  of 
Trident)   Secretary  pro  tern. 

In  addition  to  the  usual  convention  work  on  Ritual,  Consti- 
tutions, song-  book,  jewelers,  chapter  reports,  grand  council,  etc., 
under  Chapter  Extension,  petitions  were  received  from  the  Uni- 
versity of  Michigan  and  the  University  of  Nebraska,  and  discus- 
sions held  on  matters  pending  at  Syracuse,  Northwestern,  Mid- 
dlebury  and  Wesleyan  Colleges. 

The  management  of  the  Trident  was  continued  and  an  ap- 
portionment of  its  support  placed  on  the  Chapters.  Alpha  Alum- 
nse  Alliance  reported  the  work  accomplished  and  the  strong  ap- 
proval df  the  convention  given  to  this  line  of  effort.  Next  con- 
vention appointed  with  Theta,  1897. 

Representation  still  not  being  full,  an  effort  was  made  to 
remedy  this  before  the  next  Convention  by  an  active  member 
tax  to  equalize  Chapter  delegate  expenses.  Grand  Council  work 
remained  as  before  a  matter  of  personal  sacrifice.

24-27,  1897. 

It  met  in  the  Medical  Building,  the  Grand  President,  Dr.

taken  up  at  former  conventions,  a  uniform  pledge  pin  was  pro- 
vided, the  Installation  Service  for  Convention  use  was  put  in  the 
hands  of  Emily  F.  Allen  and  the  post-initiation  lecture  in  the 
hands  of  Sarah  Ida  Shaw  Martin.  The  revised  Constitution 
was  ordered  printed.  The  Alumnse  Alliance  delegates  were 
given  the  right  to  vote,  the  delegates  at  large  the  rights  of  the 
floor.  The  financial  system  was  strengthened.  Under  Chap- 
ter Extension,  the  petitions  from  the  Universities  of  Arkansas 
and  Indiana  were  denied.  Annual  memorial  services  were  insti- 
tuted. The  excellent  management  of  the  Trident  was  grate- 
fully recognized. 

The  invitation  of  Zeta  for  1900  Convention  was  accepted. 

The  treasurer's  report  showed  a  deficit  of  but  eight  cents 
for  the  past  three  years. 

The  Committee  on  Credentials  reported  every  Chapter  and 
Alliance  represented  and  five  Grand  Officers  present.

FOURTH  NATIONAL  CONVENTION. 

The  Fourth  National  Convention  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  was 
held  with  Zeta  at  the  University  of  Cincinnati,  June  26-29,  1900. 

Besides  the  usual  convention  business  perhaps  the  most  rad- 
ical measure  was  the  abolition  of  the  Province  Convention  Sys- 
tem and  the  provision  for  Bi-ennial  National  Conventions. 

Under  Chapter  Extension  work,  Iota  was  allowed  to  sur- 
render her  charter  and  the  petition  from  Bucknell  University 
referred  by  Beta  Province  was  denied. 

The  presentation  of  an  Entertainment  Fund  to  the  enter- 
taining chapter  was  begun.  The  list  of  Grand  Officers  with 
allowed  expense  accounts  increased.  Upon  Miss  Allen's  insis- 
tence upon  resigning  her  position,  the  management  of  the  Tri~

preciation of  her  nine  years  of  labor  was  made.  She  turned 
over  to  the  new  board  a  perfected  and  self-sustaining  magazine 
with  a  treasury  balance  of  more  than  one  hundred  dollars. 

The  Alumnae  Alliances  here  held  first  separated  sessions  at 
a  National  Convention.

The  invitation  of  Alpha  for  1902  Convention  was  accepted.

President  of  Gamma  Province,  Louise  Robinson  Rhodes,  was 
presiding  officer. 


SIXTH    NATIONAL   CONVENTION.  85 

Besides  the  customary  Convention  and  Inter-Sorority  work, 
a  few  new  steps  were  taken.  The  office  of  Visiting  Delegate 
was  created.  Work  on  the  eligibility  of  under-graduates  of 
different  courses  was  taken  up.  Provision  was  made  for  a  Cer- 
tificate of  Initiation.  The  scope  of  fraternity  examinations  was 
extended,  questions  on  other  sororities  being  added.  The  his- 
tory was  ordered  published  in  1905  and  every  ten  years  there- 
after. An  Executive  Committee  was  formed  within  the  Grand 
Council. 

Petitions  pending  before  the  Grand  Council  from  the  Uni- 
versity of  Pennsylvania,  the  University  of  Iowa  and  the  Univer- 
sity of  Mississippi  were  submitted  and  granted.  Several  others 
had  been  negatively  disposed  of  before  Convention. 

Model  Initiation  Rites  were  conferred  upon  petitioner,  Ola 
Price,  now  of  Chi,  and  petitioner  Valborg  Kastman  of  Phi,  be- 
fore the  Convention. 

The  invitation  of  Omicron  for  1906  was  accepted.

SEVENTH  NATIONAL  CONVENTION. 

The  Seventh  National  Convention  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  was 
"held  with  Omicron  Chapter,  Syracuse  University,  Syracuse, 
N.  Y.,  June  25-29,  1906.       " 

The  regular  opening  session  of  the  under-graduate  section 
occurred  at  2  p.  m.,  Tuesday,  June  26,  in  Crouse  College  Chapel. 
The  Grand  President,  Elizabeth  Tumbleson  Leutscher,  of  Xi, 
being  unable  to  attend  on  account  of  her  continued  illness,  the 
Grand  Vice-President  of  Alpha  Province,  Carolyn  Spencer, 
Omicron,  presided  over  the  Convention.  A  prayer  by  Lyla 
Johnston,  of  Omicron,  and  a  welcome  by  Mary  Mott,  Ex-Presi- 
dent of  Omicron,  preceded  the  formal  work  of  the  session. 

Greetings  were  exchanged  by  telegram  with  Chi  Omega  and 
Pi  Beta  Phi,  also  in  convention  assembled. 

Reports  from  Grand  Officers,  Alliance  Officers,  Visiting  Del- 
egate, and  of  the  Delegate  to  Fifth  Inter-Sorority  Con- 
ference were  very  complete  and  aroused  unusual  interest.  The 
Chapter  reports  were  made  on  uniform  blank  forms  and  were 
very  satisfactory.  Designs  for  flags  and  coat  of  arms  were 
adopted.  Work  was  done  on  Cut,  Certificate  of  Membership, 
and  Song  Book  Report.  Also  matters  in  regard  to  initiation 
ceremonies,  affiliation  of  transfers,  dates  of  collecting  dues  and 
eligibility  of  students  in  various  special  courses  were  considered 
and  decided.  Uniform  reports  and  uniform  chapter  record 
books  were  ordered.  Provisions  were  made  for  two  examina- 
tions during  a  student's  college  course.  Plans  for  a  Fraternity 
Endowment  Fund  were  formulated  and  adopted.  Chapter  en- 
dowment plans  were  outlined.     Stipulations  were  made  for  the 


88  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

collecting  and  preserving  of  complete  Trident  files  by  each 
chapter  and  also  recommendations  for  the  presentation  to  the 
chapter  of  the  badges  of  deceased  members. 

The  publication  of  a  private  bulletin,  (The  Triton),  the  his- 
tory of  the  fraternity,  and  a  complete  catalogue  were  ordered. 

The  Committee  on  Constitution  was :  Mary  McKay,  Sigma ; 
Christine  Jansson  Howard,  Alpha;  Rena  Handy,  Upsilon.  Both 
the  committee  and  the  convention  accomplished  hard  and  im- 
portant work. 

Among  the  important  changes  effected  were:  Radical 
changes  made  in  the  method  of  granting  charters,  the  creation 
of  a  salary  for  the  Editor-in-Chief  of  the  Trident,  and  the  ad- 
dition of  a  tenth  officer  to  the  Grand  Council — a  Supervisor  of 
Alliances.

BANQUET    PROGRAM. 

Toastmistress — Meride  MacKenzie,   Omicron,  '02. 

"It  was  Dean  Swift  who  ignored  the  bill  of  fare,  and  called  for  a  bill 
of  the  company." — Willis. 

The  City  of  Our  Birth— Merle  Pickford,  Mu,  '02. 

"Boston — not  so  much  of  a  place  as  a  state  of  Mind." — Anon. 

Our  Founder — Grace  Dean,  Beta,  '08. 

"Build  me  straight,  O  worthy  master! 
Staunch  and  strong,  a  goodly  vessel, 
That  shall  laugh  at  all  disaster 

And  with  wave  and  whirlwind  wrestle." — Longfellow. 
Westward  Ho!— Alice  Porterfield,   Pi,  '08. 

"Whispered  to  it !  Westward !  Westward ! 

And  with  speed  it  darted  forward." — Longfellow. 

Our  Place  in  the  Greek  World — Amy  Olgen,  Upsilon,  '04. 
"And  ship  to  ship  made  signals." — Whittier. 

Our  Brother-in-law — Ina  Walton,  Zeta,  '07. 

"I  can  blow  you  strong,  my  brother." — Longfellow. 

Looking  Forward — Laura  Glancy,  Alpha  Xi,  '06. 
"Sail  on,  sail  on,  deep  freighted 
With  blessings  and  with  hopes." — Whittier. 

A  number  not  on  this  printed  program  was  perhaps  the 
event  of  the  evening,  a  short  address  by  Dr.  Eleanor  (Pond) 
Mann,  '89,  Boston  University,  one  of  the  two  seniors  most  prom- 
inent as  founders  of  Tri  Delta.  Her  interest  and  enthusiasm 
the  years  have  but  increased,  as  she  evidenced  by  her  presence 
and  'her  words.  The  informality  of  college  and  fraternity  songs 
and  calls  was  a  most  enjoyable  close  to  the  brilliant  scene. 

After  the  banquet  on  Friday  evening  at  the  Hotel  Yates  oq- 
curred  the  last  official  act  of  the  Seventh  National  Convention  of

Eighth  National  Convention  called  for  1908. 

These  Conventions  have  not  only  increased  in  size  and  vol- 
ume of  business  transacted  and  brilliancy  of  social  functions,  but 
they  have  been  a  large  formative  force  in  the  systematizing  and 
the  forming  of  working  policies. 

Each  convention  has  also  been  an  education  to  every  Chapter 
and  an  especial  advantage  to  the  entertaining  Chapter,  as  evi- 
denced without  exception  in  that  Chapter's  post  convention  de- 
velopment. 

The  decorations  in  honor  of  these  conventions  have  been 
features  pleasant  to  remember.  The  convention  halls  have  been 
gay  with  flags  and  banners  of  the  various  colleges  and  Chapters, 
while  remembrances  by  flower,  letter  and  telegram  'from  other 
fraternities  have  made  the  day  sessions  pleasant.  At  the  social 
events,  the  green  of  the  palms,  the  brilliancy  and  odor  of  count- 
less tropical  blooms  and  the  emblazonment  everywhere  of  gold, 
silver  and  blue  amid  hundreds  of  incandescent  lights  that  threw 
their  radiance  over  girls  fair  of  feature  and  dainty  of  gown,  have 
left  in  memory's  picture  a  vision  of  youth  and  beauty. 

At  Cincinnati,  the  citizens  everywhere  seemed  to  know  of 
the  Convention  and  hardly  a  window  in  the  town  but  had  beau- 
tiful figures  or  emblems  in  which  the  colors  of  Delta  Delta  Delta 
predominated  or  reproduced  by  various  conceits  of  fancy  or  skill 
the  tokens  and  emblems.  Here,  too,  the  banquet  hall  was  large 
enough  for  the  hundred  guests  to  be  seated  at  a  triangular  ban- 
quet table.  At  both  the  convention  balls'  of  1900  and  1904  im- 
mense groupings  of  incandescent  lights  in  the  form  of  the  Stars 
and  Crescent  gave  forth  a  dazzling  brilliancy.  Boston,  Gales- 
burg  and  Syracuse  also  repeated  messages  of  "Welcome"  with 
banner,  colors  and  light. 

In  memory,  these  scenes  are  lived  full  oft  again,  "full  of

youth    of  spirit,  with  the  benediction  of  the  last  song  lingering 
in  the  air."

The  First  Alumnae  Alliance  Session  was  called  to  meet  at

also  the  Grand  Officers  of  the  Alliance  Section. 

It  was  voted  to  allow  membership  to  ex-members  of  college

The  Second  Alumnae  Alliance  Session  was  called  for  1900, 
with  the  Fourth  National  Convention. 

Second  Alumnae  Alliance  Session  held  on  Tuesday,  June  26, 
1900,  in  the  Auditorium  of  the  Grand  Hotel,  Cincinnati,  O. 

All  Alliances  excepting  Sigma  and  Lambda  represented. 
Reports  of  Alliances  were  given.  Committees  on  Ritual  Con- 
stitution work  reported  and  their  work  was  accepted. 

The  remainder  of  the  work  was  advisory  to  general  conven- 
tion work. 

Third  Alumnae  Alliance  Session  held  in  College  Club  Rooms, 
Boston,  Mass.,  Thursday,  June  26,  1902.  Delegates  from  nine 
Alliances  reported  to  roll  call,  all  but  Epsilon  being  represented. 

Besides  the  usual  work,  the  Circle  Degree  was  conferred  up- 
on seven  candidates  representing  five  Chapters,  that  they  might 
begin  the  organization  of  new  Alliances.  An  Alliance  committee 
drew  up  suggestions  for  the  improvement  of  the  Trident. 

Fourth  Alumnae  Alliance  Session  held  at  Galesburg,  111., 
Wednesday,  June  23,  1904.     Ten  Alliances  were  represented. 

The  work  of  the  advisory  committee  was  enlarged  and  the

usual  routine  work  accomplished.  The  matter  of  more  Alliances 
was  thoroughly  investigated.  , 

The  Fifth  Alumnae  Alliance  Session  was  held  at  Syracuse, 
N.  Y.,  on  Tuesday,  June  26,  1906,  at  9 :30  a.  m.,  in  Crouse  Col- 
lege Chapel.  Nine  Alliances  were  officially  represented  and 
Alumnae  and  ex-members  were  in  attendance  from  sixteen  dif- 
ferent Chapters. 

The  principal  matters  passed  upon  were  the  advisability  of 
an  Alliance  officer  on  the  Grand  Council,  the  attitude  of  Alliances 
on  Chapter  extension  questions,  and  the  elaboration  of  the  Circle 
Degree  Ritual.  Under  the  Model  Initiation  service,  the  Third 
Degree  was  conferred  upon  twelve  candidates,  ten  of  these  being 
'06  members  of  Omicron  Chapter.  The  desired  provision  for  a 
tenth  Grand  Officer,  a  Supervisor  of  Alliances  was  later  unani- 
mously made  by  the  Convention  body. 

N.  B. — [The  presiding  officers  of  the  Alliance  sessions  are  always  the 
same  as  those  of  the  general  Convention  and  its  official  delegates  are  those 
given  in  Convention  Representation  as  Official  Alumnae.  The  Alliance 
Session  has  no  power  to  enact  laws  but  simply  to  confer  and  deliberate, 
presenting  its  idea  for  the  consideration  of  the  full  Convention  in  form  of 
recommendations. — B.  L.  P.] 

Province   Conventions 

Under  the  system  of  government  for  1894  to  1900,  Prov- 
ince Conventions  were  held  in  each  Province  in  every  year  not 
having  a  National  Convention. 

These  were  found  to  be  delightful  socially,  productive  of 
much  fraternity  zeal  and  enthusiasm,  and  invaluable  in  getting 
the  Chapters  acquainted,  but  as  they  consumed  much  of  time,  en- 
ergy and  money,  and  as  the  growth  of  the  general  fraternity  de- 
manded more  frequent  conventions  with  full  legislative  power, 
the  system  was  abandoned  after  1900. 

Those  held  were  really  miniatures  of  the  National  Conven- 
tions and  had  fine  representation  and  enjoyable  social  events. 

The  Grand  Vice  Presidents  of  those  Provinces  in  session 
were  ex-officio  the  presiding  officers  of  these  conventions.  Active 
and  Alumnae  members  of  the  Chapters  entertaining  produced  an 
average  working  body  of  thirty  to  forty  members  and  these  un- 
official delegates  had  all  the  rights  of  the  floor  but  voting. 

In  all  of  these  Province  Conventions  matters  of  interest  to 
the   locality  were  considered,  plans   for  Trident   and   General 


94  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Conventions  discussed,  petitions  for  charters  received  and  inves- 
tigated and  literary  programs  held,  where  specially  prepared 
papers  on  topics  of  fraternity  interest  were  given  from  each 
Chapter. 

A-  reception  opened  each  of  them  and  some  formal  party  or 
banquet  closed  them.  Minor  social  events  and  sight  seeing  in 
the  various  college  towns,  also  many  evidences  of  courtesy  from 
the  various  chapters  of  other  fraternities  are  recorded  in  all  of 
the  reports.

This  Fourth  Convention  of  Beta  Province  was  peculiar  in 
two  ways.  It  was  held  voluntarily  by  the  Province  itself,  show- 
ing commendable  zeal  and  enthusiasm.  It  was  also,  being  called 
unofficially  after  an  interim  of  seven  years,  an  index  to  a  quite 
prevalent  feeling  in  the  sorority  that  the  abandoned  idea  of  Prov- 
ince conventions  had  been  a  desirable  feature. 

Its  work  was  of  course  unofficial  but  very  helpful  to  the 
fraternity  and  to  the  Seventh  National  Convention.  Inter- Sor- 
ority Conference  work  and  Pan-Hellenism,  Finance,  Extension,

INTER-SORORITY  EVENTS 


Pan-Hellenic  Movements 

The  history  of  Pan-Hellenism  in  the  Greek  letter  world  may 
be  written  in  very  small  space,  and  strangely  enough,  notwith- 
standing the  prevailing  impression  about  the  ability  of  women  to 
work  in  harmony,  by  far  the  greater  part  of  Pan-Hellenic  history 
must  be  written  from  the  feminine  view  point. 

Beta  Theta  Pi  was  the  first  fraternity  to  take  steps  toward 
the  formation  of  a  Pan-Hellenic  Council  and  in  1881  adopted  a 
resolution  that  caused  an  agitation  of  the  question  in  several  of 
the  journals  of  the  leading  men's  fraternities.  Notwithstanding 
violent  opposition  in  many  quarters,  the  editors  of  the  Beta 
Theta  Pi  issued  circulars  Jan.  13,  1883,  proposing  a  conference, 
"a  purely  informal  meeting."  That  inveterate  fraternity  worker 
and  eminent  authority  on  fraternity  history,  Walter  B.  Palmer, 
whom  those  who  were  fortunate  enough  to  have  attended  the 
World's  Fair  Pan-Hellenic  Congress  will  remember  to  have 
heard  and  met,  says  in  his  History  of  Phi  Delta  Theta :  "At  the 
Colonnade  Hotel,  Philadelphia,  Pa.,  February  22,  1883,  a  meet- 
ing was  held  by  21  representatives  of  thirteen  fraternities 
(A  T  O,  B  ©  n,  A  K  E,  $  T  A,  *  A  0,  3>  K  *,  2  X,  Z  *, 
A  T  A,  A  $,  $  K  2,  *  Y,  and  2  A  E),  and  21  other  frater- 
nity men  (present  as  unofficial  representatives).  It  was  decided 
that  there  should  be  a  'Pan-Hellenic  Conference  at  New  York, 
July  4,  1884,  provided  ten  fraternities  should  by  Jan.  1,  signify 
their  intention  of  participating.'  Those  present  who  were  editors 
of  fraternity  journals  formed  the  'Inter-Fraternity  Press  Asso- 
ciation.' This  meeting  at  Philadelphia  was  the  first  general  in- 
ter-fraternity meeting  ever  held.  The  Pan-Hellenic  Conference 
never  materialized,  and  the  Inter-Fraternity  Press  Association 
did  not  meet  again."  He  gives  a  brief  outline  of  the  World's 
Fair  Pan-Hellenic  Movement,  in  1893,  which,  by  the  way,  was 
the  first  joint  Pan-Hellenic  Conference  of  Men's  and  Women's 
Fraternities.     Then  later  he  says,  "November  18,  1895,  was  set 

(97)

apart  as  Fraternity  Day,  at  the  Cotton  States  and  Inter-national 
Exposition,  Atlanta,  Ga.  About  three  hundred  Greeks  met  in 
the  Auditorium  Building,  where  W.  W.  Da  vies  (<£  A  ®),  Chair- 
man of  the  Executive  Committee,  called  them  to  order.  The 
American  Hellenic  Society  was  formed,  though  its  objects  were 
not  definitely  expressed.  It  was  decided  that  the  society  should 
be  represented  at  the  Olympic  Games,  to  be  held  at  Athens, 
Greece,  April,  1896,  and  there  was  talk  of  offering  a  laurel 
wreath  to  one  of  the  victors,  but  these  plans  were  not  carried 
out." 

As  the  women's  fraternities  were  not  a  party  to  this  Ameri- 
can Pan-Hellenic  Society,  then  formed,  and  as  no  reports  of  its 
work  have  been  given  to  the  press,  definite  information  of  its 
subsequent  proceedings  can  not  be  here  given,  but  it  is  safe  to 
state  that  no  one  has  met  anywhere,  at  any  time,  any  athletes 
running  at  large,  crowned  with  the  above  mentioned  laurel 
wreaths. 

William  Raymond  Baird  (B  ©  n)  in  his  Manual  of  Ameri- 
can College  Fraternities,  recites  under  "Pan-Hellenism,"  the 
first  two  of  the  above  attempts,  then  enumerates  the  advantages 
that  might  be  gained  by  a  general  Pan-Hellenic  organization  and 
the  difficulties  that  confront  attempts  in  that  direction.  The  his- 
tory of  this  movement  among  women's  fraternities  he  both  de- 
scribes and  dismisses  with  the  following  sentence :  "The  women's 
societies  have  effected  an  organization  which  has  held  several 
meetings  and  seems  to  possess  some  elements  of  permanence.'' 

Thus  it  has  been  left  for  Delta  Delta  Delta,  it  would  seem. 
to  collect,  compile  and  for  the  first  time  to  publish  a  brief  record 
of  a  Pan-Hellenic  movement  among  the  Greek  Letter  Societies 
of  American  College  women,  which  began  in  1891  with  the  First 
Woman's  Pan-Hellenic  Convention,  received  an  impetus  from 
the  World's  Fair  Pan-Hellenic  Congress  (1893)  and  was  offi- 
cially revived  in  1902,  as  the  First  Inter-Sorority  Conference. 
Since  that  date,  annual  sessions  have  been  held,  the  reports  of 
the  Fifth,  1906,  recording  an  increasing  scope,  authority  and  in- 
terest in  these  sessions.

ties  was  called  by  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma  to  meet  with  her  Boston 
University  Chapter,  April  15-17,  1891. 

Lucy  Evelyn  Wight  (K  K  r),  was  elected  presiding  officer 
and  Emma  Harper  Turner  (II  B  <£)  secretary.  Six  sororities 
were  represented  by  three  delegates  each.  Delta  Delta  Delta 
was  represented  by  Blanche  Seaver,  of  Alpha,  Bessie  M.  Leach, 
of  Gamma,  and  Edith  Noon,  of  Delta. 

Committees  on  Inter-Fraternity  Courtesy,  Fraternity  Jewel- 
ry and  Stationery,  World's  Fair,  Greek  Journalism,  and  Inter- 
Chapter  Courtesy  were  appointed,  their  reports  discussed  and 
adopted  as  amended.  These  adopted  reports  formed  the  recom- 
mendations of  this  Convention  and  as  no  provision  had  been 
made  for  any  resolution  to  be  binding  upon  the  bodies  represent- 
ed, the  whole  work  effected  was  little  more  than  paving  the  way 
for  the  Inter-  Sorority  Conferences  which  have  followed  after  an 
interim  of  more  than  ten  years. 

The  Woman's  Pan-Hellenic  Committee  for  the  World's 
Fair  was  finally  merged  for  work  in  the  joint  committee  of  the 
Men's  and  Women's  Fraternities,  known  as  "The  Columbian 
Exposition  Committee  on  Pan-Hellenism  of  the  American  Greek 
Letter  College  Fraternities,"  of  which  Richard  Lee  Fearn 
(B  0  n)  was  chairman. 

A  standing  committee  on  Pan-Hellenism  was  appointed : 

Austiana    E.    Taylor — Alpha    Phi. 
Bertha   Reed — Delta   Gamma. 
Bessie    M.    Leach — Delta    Delta  Delta. 
Margaret    Smith — Kappa    Alphi  Theta. 
Lucy   E.    Wight — Kappa    Kap-ia  Gamma. 
Emma    Harper    Turner — Pi    Beta    Phi. 

This  committee  did  little  work  after  1894.  Many  pretty 
social  events  characterized  this  convention. 

(See  Trident,  Vol.  I,  No.  1). 

World's  Fair  Pan-Hellenic  Movements 

The  Columbian  Exposition  Committee  on  Pan-Hellenism 
held  four  or  five  meetings  in  the  Grand  Pacific  Hotel,  Chicago, 
and  an  attempt  was  made  for  an  exhibit  of  the  American  College 
Greek  Letter  Fraternities  in  a  space  thought  to  be  secured  but 
the  plan  did  not  materialize.  A  Fraternity  Congress  was  how- 
ever arranged.

INTER-SORORITY    CONFERENCES.  103 

Motion  1  and  2  were  reported  carried. 

Petitions  were  received  from  five  sororities  seeking  admis- 
sion to  the  Conference  but  none  were  granted  on  account  of  the 
adoption  of  the  following  regulations : 

1.  No  Sorority  with  less  than  five  chapters  shall  be  admit- 
ted. 

2.  No  Sorority  with  a  Chapter  in  a  school  below  collegiate 
rank  shall  be  admitted. 

A  constitution  was  presented  and  it  was  moved  to  submit  the 
same  to  the  Grand  President  of  each  sorority.  Discussions  on 
rules  of  bidding,  rushing  and  the  breaking  of  the  same  followed, 
and  then  the  printed  reports  of  the  Social  Service  Committee 
were  taken  up  and  an  additional  one  made  on  the  co-operation  to 
be  expected  from  the  men's  fraternities  in  this  work. 

Four  resolutions  on  this  work  were  adopted. 

Reports  of  Pan-Hellenic  Associations  were  given. 

Printed  reports  of  the  Fourth  Conference  have  also  been 
issued.

The  wide  distribution  of  and  interest  in  the  printed  reports 


104  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

of  the  Fourth  Conference  were  reported.  During  the  year  the 
secretary  reported  that  work  had  been  done  on  the  Woman's  So- 
cial Service  League.  The  report  of  the  Fourth  Inter-Sorority 
Conference  delegates,  who  had  been  invited  to  convene  and  con- 
fer with  the  Conference  of  the  Deans  of  Women  in  the  State  In- 
stitutions held  in  December,  1905,  in  Chicago,  was  taken  up. 

A  petition  for  investigation  of  local  conditions  at  Wisconsin 
University,  (Madison),  from  the  Pan-Hellenic  Association  there 
had  been  received  and  granted. 

Reports  were  then  read  from  each  sorority  represented. 
Mrs.  Tennant,  of  Alpha  Chi  Omega,  was  appointed  a  committee 
of  one  to  correspond  with  the  visiting  delegates  of  the  various 
sororities. 

The  report  of  the  representative  committee  sent  to  Madison, 
Wis.,  was  given  by  Mrs.  Amy  Olgen  Parmelee  (A  A  A)  and  the 
requests  of  that  local  Pan-Hellenic  Association  and  those  com- 
ing from  other  schools  were  then  received  and  passed  upon. 

It  was  moved  and  carried  that  sororities  in  High  Schools 
and  other  secondary  schools  should  be  discountenanced,  and  it  was 
recommended  that  after  four  years  from  date  of  notification  by 
Grand  Presidents,  each  sorority  in  the  Inter- Sorority  Conference 
refuse  to  admit  any  young  woman  who  has  been  a  member  of  a 
sorority  in  a  High  School  or  secondary  school. 

CONSTITUTION  AND  BY-LAWS. 

A  model  Constitution  was  drafted  and  again  presented  to 
the  Grand  Presidents  of  the  various  sororities  for  consideration 
before  the  next  conference.     The   former  Constitution   submit- 
ted had  been  unconditionally   approved  by  all  but  two   soror 
ities. 

A  model  Constitution  for  local  Pan-Hellenic  association  was 
adopted  and  ordered  printed  for  distribution  as  follows:

of  its  members  to  a  rushee. 

III.  The  Constitution  and  By-Laws  of  this  Pan-Hellenic  shall  be 
printed  not  later  than  May  1st  of  each  year,  and  five  (5)  copies  of  the 
same  shall  be  sent  by  each  chapter  to  its  Grand  President. 

IV.  These  By-Laws  may  be  amended  by  the  unanimous  vote  of  the 
Pan-Hellenic. 

Besides  the  model  constitution  and  printed  reports  of  the  Fifth 
Conference,  there  emanated  from  the  Inter- Sorority  Conference 
management  a  pamphlet  report  on  the  joint  meeting  of  Deans 
and  Advisers  of  Women  in  State  Universities  and  Representa- 
tives of  the  Inter- Sorority  Conference. 

This  report  takes  up  the  following  lines: 

I.  High  School  Sororities. 

II.  Cutting  classes  and  Poor  Work. 

III.  Increased  expenditure.  , 


106  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

IV.  Attitude  of  Sorority  girls  to  Non-Fraternity  Men. 

V.  Attitude  of  girls  to  men  whose  conduct  could  justly  be 
criticised. 

VI.  Cheating. 

The  three  recommendations  of  the  Fourth  Conference  and 
the  four  of  the  Fifth  Conference  were  again  emphasized.  Work 
was  done  on  the  matter  of  official  badges. 

The  Conference  adjourned  to  meet  September,  1907. 
(See  Trident,  Vol.  XVI,  No.  1). 

In  closing  this  chapter  on  Inter-Sorority  work,  a  few  ex- 
tracts from  the  report  made  at  the  Syracuse  Convention  by  Tri- 
Delta's  Delegate  to  the  Fifth  Inter-Sorority  Conference  are  ap- 
pended. 

As  Miss  Olgen  was  AAA  delegate  to  the  Third,  Fourth 
and  Fifth  Conferences,  was  secretary  of  the  Third,  chairman  of 
the  Fourth,  a  member  of  the  Madison  I.  S.  C.  Committee  report- 
ing to  the  Fifth,  and  was  Grand  Secretary  of  Delta  Delta  Delta 
for  1904-1906  and  elected  Grand  President  for  1906-1908,  by 
the  Seventh  National  Convention,  it  is  thought  that  no  more 
authoritative  summary  will  be  needed. 

"Whatever  may  or  may  not  have  been  accomplished  at  the 
Fifth  Inter-Sorority  Conference,  held  in  Chicago,  September  14- 
15,  1906,  the  very  fact  that  the  conference  did  meet  then  for  the 
fifth  consecutive  year,  was  a  source  of  gratification  to  many  of  the 
delegates  who  have  been  privileged  to  attend  all  the  meetings 
and  who  have  had  a  part  in  this  big  movement  from  the  small 
beginnings  of  earlier  years.  When  such  a  project  as  the  Inter- 
Sorority  Conference  was  an  experiment,  both  to  ourselves  and 
to  the  entire  Greek  world,  masculine  and  feminine,  we  were 
granted  by  the  masculine  half  or  three-fourths  of  that  world, 
five  years,  at  the  longest,  in  which  to  prove  beyond  shadow  of 
doubt  that  there  could  be  no  inter-fraternal  relationship  on  any 
basis.  Those  who  scoffed  at  first,  remained  to  study  and  finally 
to  imitate,  and  now  we  hear  of  local  Pan-Hellenics  among  the 
men  and  some  talk  of  a  similar  national  organization. 

To  the  women  most  interested,  it  did  not  take  more  than  one 
year,  or  at  most  two,  to  prove  the  experiment  a  success,  nor  long 
er  than  that  for  the  fraternities  most  interested  to  determine  to 
perpetuate  the  movement.     The  genuine  and  abiding  interest  in 
the  Inter-Sorority  Conference  is  evident  in  the  fact  that  a  number 


SUMMARY  OF  INTER-SORORITY   WORK.  107 

of  delegates  have  attended  every  conference  thus  far  held,  and 
that  the  delegates  are  now  almost  without  exception  members  of 
Grand  Councils  and  Executive  Boards,  a  number  of  them  being 
the  chief  executives  in  their  respective  organizations. 

The  Fifth  Conference  was  important  in  that  it  framed  a  con- 
stitution which  is  to  be  approved  at  the  next  conference.  This 
is  only  a  simple  working  constitution  but  it  is  important  in  that 
it  settles  many  disputed  points  and  defines  clearly  the  object 
and  powers  of  the  conference. 

Much  good  has  been  accomplished  by  the  Inter-Sorority  Con- 
ference, but  there  is  room  for  much  more  work  and  there  is  no 
reason  why  future  conferences  should  not  continue  to  do  even 
more.  The  object  of  the  Inter-Sorority  Conference  is  so  broad 
that  it  opens  up  a  big  field  of  work.  The  primary  object  has 
been  and  is  to  improve  methods  of  rushing  and  pledging.  None 
have  felt  the  evils  in  rushing  and  pledging  more  keenly  than  so- 
rority members  themselves ;  none  have  suffered  from  them  so  se- 
verely as  the  members  themselves.  The  colleges  and  universities 
where  such  evils  are  unknown  or  have  been  reduced  to  a  mini- 
mum are  few  and  far  between.  Certain  evils  have  been  entirely  up- 
rooted. No  pledging  before  matriculation  is  now  done  at  any 
college  or  university  where  two  or  more  nationals  exist.  There 
are  two  exceptions  now,  but  it  is  expected  that  these  two  will 
very  soon  conform  to  the  general  rule.  In  these  same  institu- 
tions there  exist  local  Pan-Hellenic  Associations  which  fix  the 
definite  date  of  pledging  after  matriculation,  and  in  nearly  every 
case,  rules  have  been  adopted  which  have  limited  or  actually  done 
away  with  rushing. 

It  is  hoped  that  in  time  the  present  primary  object  may  be- 
come secondary,  and  the  entire  time  and  attention  of  both  Inter- 
Sorority  Conference  and  local  Pan-Hellenics,  be  centered  on  the 
many  other  problems  of  sorority  life. 

Many  different  activities  of  the  Inter- Sorority  Conference 
are  classed  under  the  head  of  "Social  Service  Work."  Sorority 
problems  are  not  problems  confined  to  the  organizations  as  such. 
They  are  co-existant  with  many  general  educational  problems. 
Sororities  owe  their  very  existence  to  co-education.  Almost 
without  exception,  sororities  were  born  in  co-educational  institu- 
tions. By  far  the  greater  number  of  chapters,  and  usually  the 
strongest  chapters,  are  located  in  co-educational  colleges  and  uni- 


108  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

versities.  If  co-education  is  still  on  trial,  then  the  life  of  soror- 
ities is  not  assured.  Whatever  problems  co-education  presents, 
must  necessarily  become  sorority  problems.  For  selfish  reasons 
alone,  then,  we  must  help  to  make  co-education  permanent  and 
assured  and  more  general  than  at  present.  But  we  are  working 
for  philanthropic  reasons  also,  because  we  believe  firmly  that  as 
organized  bodies,  we  have  more  or  less  power  to  aid  in  any 
movement  for  good,  and  we  believe  that  in  some  cases,  certain 
desired  results  can  be  obtained  through  such  organizations  as 
ours,  and  through  such  only.  Many  problems  of  education,  from 
the  woman's  side,  have  already  been  made  the  subject  of  much 
discussion.  Committees  have  been  steadily  at  work  on  such 
questions  as  "adequate  dormitory  facilities,"  "value  of  sorority 
houses,"  "rules  and  regulations  governing  same,"  "need  of  Dean 
of  Women  in  every  co-educational  institution,"  "high  standard 
of  scholarship,"  "adequate  but  uniformly  democratic  social  life 
for  all,"  "limitation  of  excessive  expenditure  on  social  func- 
tions"— and  most  important  of  all — "college  ethics  and  morals." 

But  the ,  field  of  activity  has  not  been  confined  to  higher 
education  only.  Leaders  of  secondary  education  are  facing  a 
serious  problem  in  the  High  School  fraternity  and  sorority. 
Magazines  and  newspapers  are  full  of  agitation.  Litigation  has 
resulted  in  many  places.  Whole  communities  have  been  stirred. 
The  Inter- Sorority  Conference  has  considered  this  question  and 
finds  a  remedy  in  .the  proposed  motion  now  before  the  national 
organizations : 

Resolved,  That  the  Sororities  in  High  and  other  secondary 
schools  be  discountenanced,  and  that  four  years  from  date  of  no- 
tification by  Grand  Presidents,  each  Sorority  in  the  Inter-Sorority 
Conference  refuse  to  admit  any  young  woman  who  has  been  a 
member  of  a  sorority  (any  secret  society)  in  any  high  or  sec- 
ondary school." 

If  this  motion  is  carried,  there  can  be  no  more  speedy  and 
effective  method  of  absolutely  crushing  the  High  School  sorority. 
If  the  fraternities  will  then  do  likewise;  this  problem  will  be  eas- 
ily solved. 

So  far  Delta  Delta  Delta  has  taken  an  active  part  in  the  In- 
ter-Sorority Conference.  Both  Council  and  Chapters,  Active  and 
Alliance,  have  uniformly  supported  the  most  progressive  resolu- 
tions  and   recommendations   proposed   by   the   Conference,   and 


SUMMARY  OF  INTER-SORORITY  WORK.  109 

have  readily  voted  in  favor  of  all  proposed  legislation.  Chapter 
reports  show  a  deep  and  intelligent  interest  in  Inter-Sorority 
matters  and  the  majority  of  Chapters  have  taken  a  strong  initia- 
tive in  the  local  Pan-Hellenics.  The  magazine,  The  Trident, 
devotes  considerable  space  each  issue  to  matters  of  Inter-Soror- 
ity interest  and  the  editorial  policy  is  to  support  and  advance  the 
movement  in  every  possible  way.  The  Grand  Council  is  united 
in  insisting  upon  the  absolute  enforcement  in  spirit  and  in  letter 
o'f  all  Inter-Sorority  conference  legislation.    .

CHAPTER  HISTORIES 


General  Notes 

The  major  portion  of  the  history  of  any  fraternity  must  be 
the  history  of  its  individual  chapters  and  again  of  its  individual 
members. 

Lack  of  space  limits  the  writing  of  this  real  history.     But 
leaders  have  been  attempted.     All  the  Chapters  report  many  so- 
cial events  of  the  rushing  season.     "Let  not  the  student  idea  be 
put  into  the  back-ground  by  social  ambitions,"  might  be  a  watch 
word  for  inter-sorority  work. 

Fraternity  or  Founder's  Day  and  Chapter  Day  are  two  reg- 
ular celebrations  provided  for  every  Chapter  by  the  Constitution. 

Not  many  years  have  elapsed  in  which  to  attain  post-gradu- 
ate distinction  and  but  little  has  been  attempted  in  gathering  such 
statistics.  A  large  percentage  of  Tri  Delta  graduates  are  found 
enrolled  in  the  home  circles  of  the  land  as  wives  and  mothers. 
Perhaps  to  them  in  one  sense  has  come  the  greater  opportunity. 
The  majority  of  these  are  still  students,  fraternity  workers,  Wom- 
an's Club  workers,  and  anxious  guards  of  the  American  public 
school  system. 

Almost  the  entire  remaining  list  of  graduates  are  teachers 
in  some  line,  public  or  private,  excepting  the  few  whose  profes- 
sions are  given.  Who  shall  say  how  great  the  work  of  the 
teacher  or  how  large  the  awaiting  reward? 

Something  of  the  growth  of  Tri  Delta  may  be  appreciated 
when  one  glances  at  the  annals  of  the  Conventions  of  1893  and 
1894  and  then  remembers  that  a  recent  Trident  article  (Vol.  14, 
No.  1)  stated  that  at  the  Y.  W.  C.  A.  Student  Conference,  at 
Lake  Geneva,  Wis.,  Sept.  1-12,  1904,  eight  Tri  Deltas  were  pres- 
ent representing  six  different  Chapters  in  five  different  states. 
This  was  the  largest  representation  of  any  sorority.  Each  sub- 
sequent student's  conference  has  reported  meetings  of  various 
numbers  of  members  from  widely  scattered  Chapters  and  hardly 
a  Trident  but  records  the  accidental  acquaintances  made  through 

(110) 


CHAPTER    HISTORIES GENERAL    NOTES.  Ill 

meeting  wearers  of  the  Stars  and  Crescent.  Interlaken,  Switz- 
erland, the  Alps  and  Pike's  Peak  were  among  some  of  the  more 
recent  meeting  places.  It  is  interesting  to  note  that  the  first 
chance  meeting  recorded  was  between  representatives  of  Alpha 
and  Gamma,  (Bertha  Gardner  and  Matie  T  rumble)  under  the 
great  dome  of  the  National  Capitol,  Washington,  in  July,  1891. 
(See  Trident,  Vol.  1,  No.  1.) 

At  the  Pan-Hellenic  banquet,  held  at  Des  Moines,  Iowa,  Jan. 
26,  1906,  out  of  the  ninety-seven  fraternity  women  present,  rep- 
resenting eight  Sororities,  ( Kappa  Alpha  Theta.  Aloha  Phi,  Delta 
Delta  Delta,  Gamma  Phi  Beta,  Alpha  Xi  Delta,  Pi  Beta  Phi,  Kappa 
Kappa  Gamma  and  Delta  Gamma),  eighteen  were  Tri-Deltas, 
representing  four  chapters,  Delta,  Phi,  Epsilon  and  Kappa.  At 
the  World's  Fair  Pan-Hellenic  reception  and  banquet  (1893), 
ten  Tri  Deltas  met,  representing  four  Chapters,  Alpha,  Epsilon, 
Gamma  and  Zeta.  Fifteen  Tri  Deltas  met  at  the  St.  Louis  Fair, 
1904  (June  26).  Many  inter-chapter  parties,  chapter  house  par- 
ties and  excursions  have  been  enjoyed. 

It  will  of  course  be  realized  that  in  compiling  Chapter  his- 
tories, inaccuracies  and  omissions  must  of  necessity  occur.  The 
manner  of  keeping  records  and  of  reporting  the  same  have  in  the 
past  varied  so  much  in  the  different  Chapters  and  the  honor  cus- 
tom in  voge  is  so  different  in  the  various  schools  that  each  report 
must  be  considered  a  separate  unit.  Nevertheless  something  of 
computation,  inaccurate  though  it  may  be,  is  interesting.  The 
lists  record  ninety  members  of  Phi  Beta  Kappa,  in  Delta  Delta 
Delta.  (Kappa  Alpha  Theta  founded  in  1.870,  reports  but 
ninety-six  in  Baird's  Manual).  But  fourteen  of  the  Chapters 
are  in  institutions  conferring  this  honor  and  two  of  them  have 
given  it  but  a  short  time.  In  one  of  the  Chapters  carrying  a 
small  membership,  Sigma,  fifteen  girls  have  won  the  key.  Over 
eight  hundred  honors  and  positions  in  college  are  reported,  with 
the  majority  of  the  Chapters  reporting  only  those  of  greatest 
significance  and  one  hundred  and  fifty  names  have  recorded  with 
them  something  of  Post  Graduate  distinction,  although  prior  to 
last  year  nothing  had  been  done  by  the  Chapters  in  collecting  or 
filing  such  data. 

Much  that  was  of  interest  in  local  Chapter  life  was  necessar- 
ily abridged  or  omitted.  Every  Chapter  meeting  other  Nationals 
reports  Pan-Hellenic  Associations,  a  few  Faculty  Pledge  Days. 


112  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA, 

A  close  and  commendable  guard  over  the  scholarship  and  general 
college  standing  of  the  members  is  in  evidence  in  every  record. 

If  the  past  is  a  true  index  to  the  future,  the  next  historian 
of  Delta  Delta  Delta  will  be  able  to  compile  a  brilliant  report  of 
that  which  these  years  of  growth  and  preparation  have  made  it 
possible  to  achieve.

CHAPTER  HISTORIES 


Alpha 

Organization. 

Alpha  Chapter  was  founded  at  the  University  of  Boston, 
Boston,  Mass.,  on  Thanksgiving  Eve.,  November  28,  1888,  by 
two  Seniors,  Sarah  Ida  Shaw  and  Eleanor  Dorcas  Pond,  who 
soon  associated  with  them  two  other  Seniors,  Isabelle  M.  Breed 
and  Florence  I.  Stewart.  These  four,  almost  at  once ,  proceeded 
to  select  a  full  Chapter,  pledging  three  girls  from  the 
junior  class,  five  sophomores,  and  six  freshmen.  Miss  Shaw 
and  Miss  Pond  began  the  revealing  of  the  new  rites  to  this 
group,  in  class  order,  on  January  15,  1889.  The  first  initiation 
was  completed  at  the  home  of  Emily  F.  Allen  on  Joy  street  on 
that  evening,  and  on  the  following  Monday  eighteen  Tri-Delta 
pins  announced  to  the  Greek  letter  world  of  Boston  University 
that  the  rumors  of  a  new  society  were  based  on  the  fact  that  a 
thoroughly  organized  Chapter  had  taken  its  place  in  their  midst. 

The  first  nineteen  names  on  the  Alpha  Constitution  are  giv- 
en below  in  the  order  in  which  they  are  signed,  with  their  respec- 
tive classes  indicated.  The  two  names  enclosed  in  parentheses 
were  for  some  reason  added  after  the  first  initiation  January  15, 
1889.  On  January  18,  a  special  initiation  was  held  admitting 
Marion  K.  Norris.

Chapter  Data. 

Regular  rooms  for  chapter  meetings  are  now  maintained 
and  it  is  the  custom  of  non-resident  students  to  find  accommoda- 
tions together.  Alpha  Chapter  entertains  its  Alumnae  at  least 
once  a  year  and  the  Alumnae  give  the  chapter  an  Annual  Christ- 
mas spread.  A  Pan-Hellenic  reception  called  Klatsch  Collegium 
entertains  them  at  an  open  meeting  early  in  the  spring,  a  play 
before  the  College  Philomathean  Society  and  the  Annual  initia- 
tion banquet  are  the  regular  social  events  of  the  Chapter,  that 
take  precedence  over  the  various  informal  dances  and  parties. 
This  year  the  classes  are  also  being  entertained. 

Besides  the  responsibilities  and  burdens  of  founding  and  ex- 
tending a  national  sorority  borne  so  long  and  successfully  by 
members  of  Alpha  Chapter,  and  the  Chapter  as  a  whole,  else- 
where recorded,  one  will  see,  by  turning  to  publications,  how  for 
nine  long  years, — the  first  years,  the  hard  years,  an  Alpha  girl 
was  Editor-in-Chief  of  the  Trident  and  that  with  her  and  with 
Alpha  Chapter  rested  the  responsibility  of  its  business  manage- 
ment. To  Alpha  Chapter  girls  must  be  given  also  the  honor  of 
organizing  the  first  Alumnae  Alliance  and  of  giving  the  necessary 
successful  impetus  to  such  a  movement  as  to  assure  its  adoption 
by  the  fraternity  at  large.  Alpha  Chapter  also  conducted  itself 
in  such  a  manner  as  to  secure  recognition  as  a  national  sorority, 
even  before  its  first  Convention,  being  invited  in  April,  1891,  to 


CHAPTER    HISTORIES — ALPHA.  115 

assemble  its  delegation  of  three  for  representation  in  the  Wom- 
an's Pan-Hellenic  Convention,  called  by  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma. 

In  1902,  Alpha  Chapter  entertained  the  Fifth  National  Con- 
vention in  a  manner  that  did  credit  both  to  its  record  as  a  parent 
Chapter  and  to  the  beautiful  places  of  historical  and  literary  fame 
which  they  by  virtue  of  location  could  offer  the  sight  seeing  dele- 
gates, when  an  hour  could  be  snatched  from  work. 

Other  sororities  precede  Delta  Delta  Delta  in  date  of  estab- 
lishment, a  few  in  length  of  chapter  roll  but  none  are  prouder  of 
the  rank  and  location  of  the  College,  where  their  parent  chapter 
was  founded,  nor  can  another  outrival  Delta  Delta  Delta  in  the 
earnest  steadfast  purpose  of  the  Alpha  members  or  in  the  success 
attending  their  every  effort.

There  is  absolutely  no  recognition  of  an  honor  system  at 
Boston  University,  therefore  Alpha  Chapter  has  kept  no  record 
of  such  things.  She  has  always  had  her  share  of  representation 
on  the  University  Beacon,  in  the  Proctor-ships,  in  the  Klatsch- 
Collegium,  Gamma  Delta  Society,  various  College  clubs,  Y.  W.

College  Data. 

Boston  University  was  founded  in  1869,  and  although  non- 
sectarian  is  supported  by  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Denomination. 

Late  this  spring  arrangements  were  completed  whereby 
the  University  will  leave  "Jacob  Sleeper  Hall"  and  will  move 
this  summer  to  better  buildings  in  a  much  better  location,  but  a 
short  distance  from  the  Public  Library  and  Art  Institute. 

In  the  Liberal  Arts  Department,  it  numbers,  1905,  men  stu- 
dents 184;  women  317;  faculty  30;  in  190G,  it  numbered,  in  all

(Delta  Deuteron  formerly.). 

Organization. 

Delta  Chapter  was  installed  in  Simpson  College,  Indianola. 
la.,  May  10,  1889,  by  Etta  May  Budd,  of  Alpha.  Sarah  Ida 
Shaw  and  Etta  May  Budd  inspired  the  local  L.  F.  V.  sororsis, 
existing  in  the  college  successfully  since  1871  and  numbering 
ninety-five  members  to  apply  for  a  charter  in  Delta  Delta  Delta. 
This  was  the  second  Chapter  established  and  was  known  as  Delta 
Deuteron  until  the  First  National  Convention,  when  the  system 


118  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

of  naming  was  changed  and  this  Chapter  became  Delta,  with  the 
list  of  the  former  Delta  Chapter  affiliated.  Miss  Budd  was  at  this 
time  a  member  of  the  faculty  at  Simpson  College. 

The  local,  having  abandoned  the  idea  of  founding  a  national 
was  investigating  Greek  letter  societies  with  a  view  toward  peti- 
tioning some  one  of  them  later,  when  the  acquaintance  of  Miss 
Budd,  of  Alpha,  was  made  and  thus  Tri-Delta  chosen.  On  April 
19,  1889,  a  pledge  was  signed  by  three  members  of  L.  F.  V.  for 
the  society,  Mrs.  Alice  Barker  Berry,  '72  (A.  M.),  Mrs.  Dora  Gil- 
ford Honnold,  '75,  and  Miss  Carrie  McCausland,  '89,  who  then 
received  the  ritual  and  then  preceeded  to  initiate  the  others. 
The  initiation  took  place  at  the  home  of  Mrs.  Dora  Gifford  Hon- 
nold.

Chapter  Data. 

In  1896  a  room  was  rented  for  meetings.  A  Chapter  House 
was  maintained  last  year  for  those  members  not  residents  of  In- 
dianola.  Owing  to  the  late  pledge  day  this  year  (1907)  it  was 
thought  best  to  give  up  the  house  this  year,  but  plans  are  made  to 
have  a  fine  one  next  year.  One  formal  party  is  given  each  term 
and  a  farewell  meeting  for  the  Seniors  held  the  last  day  of  Com- 
mencement Week.  On  this  occasion,  the  officers  for  the  ensuing 
year  are  installed. 

On  account  of  the  forty-five  years  history  back  of  the  L.  F. 
V.  Sorosis,  Delta  Chapter  has  had  most  valuable  alumnae  support. 
An  old  banner  is  found  here  of  blue  plush  lined  with  silver  silk, 
edged  with  silver  fringe  and  emblazoned  with  a  golden  Delta. 

Delta  Chapter  reported  thirty-six  elective  and  honorary  posi- 
tions held  in  1905  and  1906.

While  the  custom  was  still  in  vogue  among  fraternities  and 
sororities  to  initiate  well  known  people  as  honorary  members, 
Mrs.  J.  Ellen  Foster,  Lecturer  and  Social  Service  Worker,  was 
initiated  by  Delta  Chapter,  (1891).  She  was  recently  detailed 
from  the  Department  of  Justice  by  direction  of  President  Roose- 
velt to  investigate  the  condition  of  woman  and  child  workers 
throughout  the  country.  A  recent  New  York  Daily  has  the  fol- 
lowing to  say  of  the  appointment: 

"Mrs.  Foster  has  had  years  of  philanthropic  work  that  peculiarly  fits 
her  for  gathering  just  such  statistics.  She  was  among  the  first  women 
in  the  country  to  study  and  practice  law,  and  most  of  her  clients  were 
moneyless   and   defenseless   women  and  children. 

"She  has  been  prominent  in  most  of  the  best  reform  movements 
which  have  engaged  women's  clubs  and  societies,  and  usually  had  charge 
of  the  work  of  crystallizing  the  sentiment  into  political  action. 

"On  two  occasions  she  brought  special  trainloads  of  factory  women 
from  New  England  to  testify  before  senate  committees  as  to  their  wages 
and   living  conditions. 

"In  1900  Mrs.  Foster  was  appointed  by  Secretary  of  State  John 
Hay  to  represent  the  United  States  in  the  International  Red  Cross 
Conference  at  St.  Petersburg.  Last  year  she  accompanied  the  Taft 
party  to  the  Philippines  and  made  a  special  report  to  President  Roose- 
velt on  the  condition  of  women  and  children  there. 

"Mrs.  Foster  returned  from  a  trip  around  the  world  a  few  months 
ago,  in  the  course  of  which  she  studied  the  condition  of  women  and 
children  in  China  and  India."

Epsilon 

Organization. 

Epsilon  Chapter  was  founded  at  Knox  College,  Galesburg, 
111.,  in  1889,  by  transforming  a  local  society  formed  in  March, 
1888,  and  known  as  Kappa  Beta  Theta,  into  the  third  Chapter  of 
Tri-Delta. 

This  society  had  been  organized  for  the  purpose  of  procur- 
ing a  charter  from  a  national  and  while  considering  the  matter 
began  correspondence  with  Sarah  Ida  Shaw  through  the  influ- 
ence of  mutual  fraternity  acquaintances.  The  charter  was 
granted  July  9,  1889,  by  the  three  grand  officers. 

In  August,  1889,  Miss  Hattie  Berry,  of  Delta  (Deuteron) 
Chapter,  came  and  initiated  the  Chapter,  that  they  might  get  their 
pins  and  arrange  their  plans  before  college  opened.  The  initia- 
tion took  place  in  Phi  Gamma  Delta  Hall  and  the  event  was  fol- 
lowed by  a  banquet.  Regular  organization  and  installation  with 
some  accompanying  social  events  occurred  at  the  Thanksgiving 
Eve  following  and  in  some  way  the  date  of  the  installation  of  Ep- 
silon Chapter  has  always  been  given  as  Thanksgiving  Eve,  1889.

Chapter  Data. 

The  college  does  not  allow  its  sororities  to  maintain  either 
Houses  or  Halls  but  meetings  in  the  homes  are  systematically 
carried  on  and  great  vitality  and  enthusiasm  is  shown  here  and 
in  a  series  of  elaborate  social  functions  given  each  year,  includ- 
ing a  formal  ball,  a  reception,  banquet  and  many  minor  events. 
The  annual  Thanksgiving  banquet  is  a  double  celebration  for 
this  Chapter,  and  Upsilon,  Gamma,  Delta  and  Phi  Chapters  have 
had  representatives  present  at  this  affair. 

The  Chapter  has  stepped  outside  mere  college  activity  and 
furnished  one  of  the  rooms  of  the  Free  Kindergarten  Building  of 
Galesburg  and  does  active  personal  work  there  each  week. 

A  summary  of  the  long  honor  list  gives  the  following: 

There  have  been  137  girls  initiated,  45  have  been  members 
of  L.  M.  I.,  25  of  Y.  W.  C.  A.,  6  have  been  graduated  in  piano, 
1  in  violin,  3  in  voice,  and  57  from  college;  19  first  prizes  have 
been  won,  10  second  prizes,  and  70  elective  offices  in  college  or- 
ganizations have  been  held   (not  including  class  plays). 

There  have  been  62  marriages  and  5  deaths  in  the  chapter. 

Many  Epsilon  girls  have  been  prominent  in  the  social  and 
literary  life  of  Galesburg,  after  graduation,  one  year's  report 
showing  each  of  the  four  leading  literary  clubs  of  the  city  pre- 
sided over  by  a  Tri  Delta. 

A  Chapter  whose  strength  at  home  made  it  impossible  for 
it  to  realize  the  struggles  of  a  new  and  as  yet  unorganized  nation- 
al, Epsilon  received  something  of  a  shock  when  it  invited  the 
First  National  Convention  to  come  to  Galesburg  and  witnessed 
the  arrival  of  so  few  delegates.  Those  few,  however,  were 
royally  entertained  and  went  away  very  proud  of  the  Chapter  that 
had  received  them.  Epsilon  has  the  unique  honor  of  having  en- 
tertained two  National  Conventions,  and  the  numbers  of  the  Sixth 
Convention  must  have  satisfied  the  wildest  dreamer  of  them  all. 

This  Convention  found  that  the  hospitality,  praised  of  old, 
was  still  characteristic  there.  With  Epsilon  also  met  the  First 
National  Alumnae  Alliance  session,  at  the  time  of  a  Beta  Prov- 
ince Convention,  1898.

126  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Delta 

Organization. 

Delta  Chapter  was  installed  at  Iowa  State  College,  Ames, 
Iowa,  in  June,  1890,  by  Etta  Mae  Budd,  of  Alpha.  Miss  Budd. 
B.  S.  '82,  was  a  daughter  of  the  Professor  of  Horticulture  of 
Iowa  State  College  and  had  been  perfecting  her  education  at  Bos- 
ton University  and  upon  her  return  to  her  home  college  had  been 
elected  a  member  of  its  faculty.  Having  given  up  her  former 
idea  of  establishing  a  national  fraternity  and  finding  her  old  local 
W.  D.  T.  disbanded,  in  spite  of  anti-fraternity  disturbances,  she 
found  no  difficulty  in  organizing  a  Chapter  for  the  new  national 
with  which  she  had  identified  herself  in  Boston,  Alpha  Chapter 
of  Delta  Delta  Delta. 

Charter  Members. 

The  following  were  all  Senior  girls  who  were  chosen  and 
initiated  as  charter  members: 

Minnie  A.  Adams.  Sappho  Lane. 

Blanche  M.  Bradley.  Minnie  A.  Malley. 

Etta  M.  Budd.  Olivia  M.  Morton. 

Lynne   Chevalier.  Violet  N.  Quint. 

Carrie  L.  Cottrell.  L.  May  Roddis. 

Mary  H.  Cottrell.  Evelyn  E.  Starr. 

To  this  number  were  soon  added: 

Nellie  E.  Dean.  Eva   Speer. 

Trident  Degree — 

Flora  Wilson. 

Chapter  Data. 

It  will  be  remembered  that  this  College  was  the  scene  of  the 
most  violent  anti-fraternity  disturbances  on  record  and  that  mat- 
ters were  finally  carried  into  the  courts  for  adjustment,  by  chap- 
ters of  the  various  men's  fraternities. 

The  Chapter  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  remained  loyal  and  earnest 
but  after  being  forbidden  to  initiate  more  members  (in  1892), 
discontinued  its  work  on  account  of  this  faculty  anti-fraternity 
legislation.  It  surrendered  its  charter  to  the  First  National  Con- 
vention and  from  this  time  Delta  Deuteron  Chapter,  located  at 
Simpson  College,  Iowa,  received  the  name  of  Delta,  affiliating 
the  former  members  of  that  Chapter. 

In  the  spring  of  1906,  the  Editor  of  the  Trident  noticed  the 


CHAPTER   HISTORIES DELTA   GAMMA.  127 

names  of  some  of  this  Chapter  in  a  list  of  people  participating  in 
a  Pan-Hellenic  banquet  at  Waterloo,  Iowa.  Correspondence 
immediately  revealed  the  fact  that  Tri  Delta  bonds  were  as 
strong  as  ever  and  their  interest  in  the  national  fraternity  great, 
although  fate  had  denied  them  a  chapter  home.  Fourteen  mem- 
bers were  fully  initiated  here  and  two  pledged  or  Trident  Degree 
members  existed.  Tri  Delta  has  never  counted  Delta  at  Iowa 
State  College  as  a  fairly  established  Chapter  as  the  date  of  its 
initiation  services  and  the  anti-fraternity  rulings  so  conflicted 
that  it  had  no  actual  college  existence.  But  the  zeal  and  loyalty 
of  its  initiates  have  been  appreciated  all  the  more,  and  when  one 
considers  that  this  was  not  only  an  unsuccessful  attempt  but  the 
unsuccessful  attempt  of  a  new  sorority,  the  lasting  interest  of 
these  girls  is  a  splendid  testimony  to  the  value  of  its  rites. 

Post  Graduate  Mention. 

Etta  May  Budd,  who  had  joined  her  forces  and  plans  to  Tri  Delta 
while  in  Boston,  was  not  only  the  organizer  of  Delta  Chapter,  but  also 
transformed  the  L.  F.  V.  Society  of  Simpson  College  into  Delta  Deuteron 
Chapter  of  Delta  Delta  Delta.  She  was  for  several  years  a  member  of  the 
Simpson  College  Faculty. 

Evelyn  Starr  (since  deceased),  was  a  post  graduate  student  at  Ames. 

Eva  Spear  was  a  daughter  of  Prof.  Spear,  at  that  time  Superintend- 
ent of  U.  S.  Experimental  Station. 

Flora  Wilson  (a  pledged  member),  is  the  daughter  of  the  Professor 
of  Agriculture  at  that  time,  and  he  has  since  become  a  member  of  Presi- 
dent Roosevelt's  Cabinet,  while  Miss  Wilson  is  now  studying  in  Paris. 

May  Roddis  Kruger  is  now  in  the  Philippines,  the  wife  of  a  U.  S. 
army  captain. 

College  Data. 

Iowa  State  College  was  established  under  a  grant  for  agri- 
cultural schools  in  1869.  Fraternities  were  ruled  out  in  1890- 
1891.  Recently  the  rulings  have  been  favorable  again  and  some 
of  the  men's  fraternities  and  Pi  Beta  Phi  have  reopened  their 
chapters. 

n  B  #,  established  1877;  withdrawn  1887;  re-established  1906. 
AAA,  installed  1890;  never  conducted. 

Gamma 

Organization. 

Gamma  Chapter  was  installed  at  Adrian  College,  Adrian, 
Mich.,  on  Feb.  22,  1890,  in  W.  C.  T.  U.  parlors,  by  Mrs.  L.  A.  W. 
Stevens,  of  Alpha. 


128  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

The  group  of  girls  composing  it  received  all  possible  aid  and 
encouragment  both  from  the  local  chapters  of  the  men's  frater- 
nities and  from  various  members  of  the  faculty,  it  being  felt  that  a 
second  national  sorority  would  be  a  good  thing  in  the  school.  A 
local  had  been  in  existence  since  the  beginning  of  the  college 
year. 

Charter  Members. 

Bessie  M.  Leach.  Matie  Trumble. 

Rose  McCormick.  Eva  Rorick. 

Anna   Poage.  Daisy  Mulvane. 

Anna  Louise  Porter.  Fronia  Rhonemus. 
Emma  Kinney. 

Chapter  Data. 

The  Chapter  has  always  maintained  a  chapter  hall,  located  in 
a  front  wing  of  the  girls'  dormitory.  A  regular  rent  is  paid  for 
the  hall  and  it  is  provided  with  all  modern  conveniences.  It  has 
been  refurnished  and  re-decorated  by  the  chapter  for  4906,  this 
being  the  third  time  that  it  has  had  renovation.  Tri  Delta  girls 
at  Adrain  have  always  added  to  their  creed  the  fostering  of  loy- 
alty to  their  Alma  Mater. 

Weekly  meetings  are  held.  An  opening  party,  a  Pan-Hel- 
lenic affair  of  some  kind  and  the  Annual  Reunion  Banquet  are 
the  more  important  regular  social  duties. 

No  record  of  minor  college  honors  and  positions  has  been 
kept,  but  Gamma  Chapter  reported  the  following  college  posi- 
tions for  1905-'06 : 

Senior  Class  Prophet,  an  Eulogist,  Reciter,  and  Debater  for 
Literary  Societies'  Anniversaries,  Vice  President  of  Y.  W.  C.  A. 
and  President  of  College  Alumni  Association. 

In  her  history  Gamma  Chapter  has  enjoyed  three  positions 
on  the  college  faculty,  five  assistant  or  tutor  positions  and  four 
of  its  girls  have  become  wives  of  faculty  members.  In  the  first 
year  of  its  organization,  out  of  seven  girls  in  college  holding 
High  School  graduation  first  honors,  five  were  on  this  Chapter 
roll.

A  Chapter  House  has  been  maintained  for  some  time,  pro- 
vided by  their  honorary  member,  Mrs.  H.  A.  Cowen,  for  a  time, 
but  now  supported  by  the  girls.  A  goodly  portion  of  a  fund  for 
the  purchase  of  a  home  has  been  accumulated.  Formal  events 
here  are  Annual  Initiatory  Banquet,  a  joint  celebration  of  Found- 
ers' and  Chapter  Day  held  some  time  between  Thanksgiving  and 
Christmas,  annual  Christmas  celebration,  Annual  Alumnae  Re- 
union Banquet  and  three  or  four  other  variable  functions.  Reg- 
ular meetings  are  held  each  Saturday  evening. 

Beta  Chapter  entertained  the  Second  National  Convention 
with  credit  to  itself  and  satisfaction  to  the  fraternity.  The  first 
convention  picture  was  made  at  this  time. 

St.  Lawrence  University  has  been  the  scene  of  some  very 
interesting  sorority  history,  and  Beta  Chapter  made  as  heroic  a 
struggle  as  any  Chapter  ever  recorded,  and  was  rewarded  by  a 
remarkable  success.  To  some  of  those  who  had  watched  and 
worked  during  the  trying  times  recorded  in  their  secret  annals, 
the  delegation  of  twenty-one  members  who  came  down  to  Syra- 
cuse to  the  Seventh  National  Convention  was  an  inspiring  sight. 
Besides  having  furnished  a  fourteen  room  Chapter  House,  Beta 
Chapter  has  made  quite  a  start  on  a  Chapter  Endowment  Fund. 

Besides  the  listed  honors,  the  following  positions  were  re- 
ported for  1905 — Vice  Presidency  of  three  classes  and  of  the

Zeta 

Organization. 

Zeta  Chapter  was  installed  at  the  University  of  Cincinnati, 
Cincinnati,  O.,  May  23,  1892,  by  Emma  B.  Kinney,  of  Gamma, 
and  it  was  through  her  efforts  that  the  petitioning  body  for  Zeta 
Chapter  was  assembled.  Her  home  was  in  Cincinnati  and  when 
she  decided  to  give  up  her  work  in  Adrian  College  and  enter  her 
home  University,  it  was  her  steadfast  purpose  to  organize  there 
a  creditable  chapter  of  the  then  young  national  sorority,  in 
which  she  had  been  such  an  enthusiastic  charter  member  at 
Adrian. 

The  pride  and  strength  of  the  local  sororities  there  at  the 
University  at  that  time  can  scarcely  be  estimated  by  people  ac- 
customed to  measure  things  by  the  national  standard.  Miss 
Kinney's  judgment  both  on  character  and  scholarship  was  also 
of  an  unusually  keen  discrimination  so  that  her  task  consumed 
nearly  two  years,  but  the  history  of  Zeta  Chapter  and  Zeta  Al- 
liance declares  to  all  how  wisely  and  well  it  was  accomplished 
and  how  loyally  the  early  support  that  she  gained  work  with  her 
and  for  Tri  Delta.

Meetings  are  held  every  other  Saturday  in  the  homes. 
Every  two  months  a  joint  session  of  Alumnae  Alliance  and  Chap- 
ter is  held.  Dances,  plays,  luncheons,  and  banquets  are  regular 
affairs.  As  an  unusually  large  proportion  of  members  are  of 
Cincinnati  families  and  thus  the  Alliance  numbers  more  than 
fifty,  the  joint  meetings  are  very  large  affairs.  Those  who  at- 
tended the  Fourth  National  Convention  of  A  A  A  will  never  for- 
get the  elaborate  manner  in  which  Zeta  Chapter  entertained. 
The  gorgeous  window  decorations  of  the  city,  in  honor  of  the 
Convention,  bore  witness  to  the  fact  that  the  Chapter  was  locally 
appreciated.  For  years  a  very  strong  and  old  local  and  two 
other  good  locals  were  formidable  rivals,  but  the  Convention  of 
1900  was  so  convincing  that  since  then  Zeta  has  had  a  free  range, 
K  K  r  installed  a  Chapter  here  in  1885  but  it  existed  but  a  few 
months,  its  charter  being  withdrawn  in  1885. 

Zeta  Chapter  has  also  borne  the  responsibility  of  editing  the 
Trident  and  borne  it  with  credit.  Miss  Julia  Closterman  was 
the  second  editor-in-chief,  assuming  her  duties  at  the  beginning 
of  the  tenth  volume  and  continued  them  througli  the  eleventh 
with  a  marked  success.  She  was  the  first  editor  to  use  an  illus- 
trated cover,  the  admirable  and  significant  design  being  the 
work  of  one  of  Zeta's  members,  Lavina  Perin-Gray.  Beside 
informal  rushing  parties,  the  last  year  recorded  in  October  a 
dance,  at  the  Allamont  Hotel,  a  "bal  poudre,"  in  December,  and 
a  dance  June  the  fifth.  On  Founder's  Day  the  Alliance  gave 
the  banquet. 

Over  thirty  college  elective  and  honorary  positions  were  re- 
ported for  the  past  year.

Chapter  Data. 

The  Chapter  maintains  a  two  room  hall  for  its  meetings. 
For  a  time,  a  Chapter  House  was  maintained  but  the  idea  was 
finally  given  up  as  many  of  the  members  were  residents  of  the 
town.  Both  formal  and  informal  parties  are  given.  Re- 
unions are  a  feature. 

Besides  the  listed  honors,  seven  committee  positions  were 

reported  for  the  past  year,  two  members  in  the  College  Choir, 

three  in  the  Glee  Club,  three    in    Histrionics    and    four    in    the

Theta 

Organization. 

Theta  Chapter  was  installed  at  the  University  of  Minne- 
sota, Minneapolis,  Minn.,  Feb.  21,  1894,  by  Almedia  Laurson, 
(Grand  President)  of  Epsilon. 

A  group  of  girls  as  early  as  1890  had  made  application  for 
a  charter  of  Delta  Delta  Delta,  but  failing  to  satisfactorily  group 
the  requisite  number,  they  had  become  discouraged  and  finally 
obtained  a  charter  in  another  national  sorority.  In  1892,  Louise 
Robinson  began  correspondence  with  Sarah  Ida  Shaw,  relative 
to  another  petition,  and  at  last  the  charter  was  granted  to  the 
following!

Chapter  Data. 

A  chapter  room  has  always  been  maintained,  where  weekly 
meetings  are  held.  Social  meetings  are  held  once  a  month  at 
the  homes  of  the  town  girls.  Some  three  or  four  large  dancing 
parties  are  given  during  the  year.  On  Chapter  Day  here  the 
Alumnae  give  the  banquet.  There  is  a  Christmas  celebration 
and  the  spring  brings  either  a  steamer  trip  down  the  Mississippi 
or  lake  excursions.  Although  this  Chapter  was  preceded  in  the 
field  by  four  strong  nationals,  it  at  once  took  good  standing  and 
has  always  been  strong  locally,  as  well  as  a  Chapter  assuming 
willingly  the  responsibilities  of  the  general  sorority  work.

The  Third  National  Convention  was  really  the  first  succes- 
ful  and  representative  one,  the  one  that  marked  a  success  at- 
tained, and  this  Convention  was  held  with  Theta  Chapter  and 
with  a  Theta  Chapter  girl,  Dr.  Caroline  Edgar  Erdman,  in  the 
chair  as  Grand  President. 

As  the  majority  of  the  members  are  either  Minneapolis  or 
St.  Paul  girls,  no  need  of  a  Chapter  House  has  been  felt,  but  a 
suite  of  four  rooms  has  been  rented  for  the  present  year  and  pro- 
visions for  a  permanent  fund  made  both  by  under-graduate  work 
and  by  alumnae  pledges  of  $25.00  per  capita.

144  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Danforth,  by  Bessie  Leach  Priddy  (Grand  Vice  President)  and 
Eva  M.  Rorick,  both  of  Gamma  Chapter. 

This  Chapter  was  organized  in  the  earlier  days  of  the  fra- 
ternity when  the  Grand  Council  alone  voted  upon  the  petition- 
ing body  and  when  investigations  into  local  conditions  were  not 
made  in  person.  The  splendid  recommendations  of  the  appli- 
cants and  the  size  of  the  student  body  promised  well. 

Charter  Members. 

D.  Zena  Thomson.  Almarene   Orsborne. 

Leonore  Loxley.  Effie  Lynch  Danforth 

Harriet  Brown.  Josephine  R.  Powell. 

Nellie  M.  Walters.  Gertrude  M.  Brown. 
Nell  Kempf. 

Four  others  were  initiated  at  that  time :  Ruth  Wales  Butterworth, 
Blanche  Young,  Lucile  Shelley,  Harriette  Averill. 

Chapter  Data. 

This  chapter  up  to  July,  1900,  had  initiated  thirty-two  mem- 
bers and  pledged  two.  It  graduated  twenty-two  members.  All 
the  then  existing  women's  fraternities  were  represented  at  Ann 
Arbor,  and  Iota  Chapter  found  the  rivalry  so  bitter  that  they  be- 
lieved the  situation  made  their  members  unhappy  and  gave  no 
benefit  to  the  general  fraternity.  They  decided  to  discontinue 
their  efforts  and  sending  two  delegates  to  the  Fourth  National 
Convention,  they  loyally  revealed  the  whole  situation  and  vol- 
untarily surrendered  their  charter.  They  were  unanimously  re- 
leased and  their  delegates  present  given  the  Circle  Degree  with 
power  to  create  an  Iota  Aliance  at  their  discretion. 

Iota  maintained  a  Chapter  House  during  nearly  her  whole 
history.  Some  of  the  girls  were  prominent  in  the  work  of  the 
Woman's  League,  in  College  Dramatics,  and  many  of  them  re- 
ceived advanced  or  professional  degrees!,  after  their  regular 
college  course.  Many  of  them  have  also  been  located  in  positions 
of  honor  and  responsibility  since  their  graduation. 

Effie  Lynch  Danfurth  was  a  teacher  of  Classics  in  a  private 
School  for  Girls  in  New  York  City  in  1902-'06,  also  a  student 
of  Archaeology  in  Rome,  1903.  Blanche  Boyle  received  the  de- 
gree of  M'.  D.  at  Ann  Arbor,  in  1904,  having  spent  four  years 
for  a  literary  course  and  two  in  medical ;  after  the  Tri  Delta 
Chapter  House  was  closed,  she  was  a  member  of  the  woman's 
medical   fraternity.     The   Misses   Reichman   won   distinction   as

scholars  and  one  of  them  represented  the  Woman's  League  on 
the  Michigan  State  Federation  of  Woman's  Clubs'  program, 
while  the  other  took  Post  Graduate  work  at  the  University  of 
Chicago.  Mary  Field  is  assistant  Matron  in  Maxwell  Station 
social  settlement  work  in  Chicago.  Ruth  Butterworth  affiliated 
with  Zeta. 

The  following  was  passed  by  the  Cincinnati  Convention  and 
appeared  in  Trident,  Vol.  IX,  No.  4: 

"The  Delta  Delta  Delta  Fraternity  in  convention  assembled 
at  Cincinnati,  O.,  this  twenty-ninth  day  of  June,  1900,  desires  to 
make  the  following  statement  concerning  her  Iota  Chapter  at 
Ann  Arbor,  Mich: 

Owing  to  the  rumors  and  the  criticisms  made  against  Iota 
Chapter  of  A  A  A  in  the  student  body  at  Ann  Arbor,  Iota 
Chapter  has  for  same  time  contemplated  the  advisability  of 
voluntarily  surrendering  her  charter. 

This  matter  had  been  thoroughly  investigated  by  members 
of  the  Grand  Council  of  A  A  A  and  came  before  this  Convention 
for  consideration.  The  present  Chapter  was  perfectly  vindi- 
cated. Yet,  under  the  present  conditions,  it  was  deemed  advis- 
able to  allow  the  Chapter  to  voluntarily  surrender  its  charter,  the 
Convention  expressing  its  entire  confidence  in  the  petitioning 
body.

Kappa 

Organization. 

Kappa  Chapter  was  installed  in  the  University  of  Nebras- 
ka, Lincoln,  Neb.,  at  Ashland,  Neb.,  in  the  home  of  Dr.  Von 
Mansfelde,  by  Lora  Allen,  of  Delta,  on  Nov.  28,  1894.  Upsilon 
Chapter  was  instrumental  in  its  formation  and  the  Chapter  of 
Delta  Gamma  there  gave  friendly  aid,  some  of  its  members  hav- 
ing Tri  Delta  friends  in  Galesburg. 

An  unusual  circumstance  occurred  here,  as  two  groups  of 
girls  were  petitioners  at  the  same  time  for  a  charter  in  Tri 
Delta.  But  when  the  group  headed  by  Miss  Frankish  and 
Anita  Muir,  although  later  petitioners,  received  the  affirmative 
vote,   their  disappointed   rivals   offered   friendly   congratulations. 

On  Nov.  29,  a  reception  introduced  Kappa  Chapter  to  the 
University  life. 

Charter  Members.

Chapter  Data. 

Kappa  Chapter  has  supported  a  Chapter  House  for  seven 
years,  excepting  the  year  1905-'06.  This  was  due  to  poor 
accommodations  in  available  houses,  rather  than  to  any  inability 
on  the  part  of  the  sorority.  At  present  a  beautiful  home  is 
maintained  in  the  heart  of  the  city,  one  block  irom  the  State 
Capitol  and  next  door  to  the  Governor's  Mansion.  The  Man- 
sion might  almost  be  called  Kappa's  second  home,  as  its  mis-

tress  is  an  honorary  member  of  Tri  Delta  and  hospitably  re- 
ceives all  the  girls.  During  this  year  eleven  girls  occupy  the 
Lincoln  Tri  Delta  House,  a  much  larger  number  than  is  found 
in  any  other  sorority  house  in  the  city. 

Kappa  furnished  her  present  home  in  a  uniform  style,  with 
gifts  from  active  and  alumnae  members  and  several  of  the  fra- 
ternities, the  weathered  oak  idea  is  very  well  carried  out.  She 
prides  herself  on  having  not  a  "rooming  place"  but  a  complete 
home  in  every  sense  of  the  word,  and  that  idea  prevails  thro' 
out  the  school  in  connection  with  the  Tri  Deltas'  Lincoln  quar- 
ters. Mrs.  Dr.  Holyoke,  a  well  known  singer  and  a  lady  of 
great  prestige  in  local  circles,  owns  the  house  and  resides  with 
the  girls.  The  Chapter  is  making  plans  for  a  still  better  home  for 
next  year,  and  hope  before  many  years  to  own  a  home. 

The  annual  Thanksgiving  banquet  combines  the  celebra- 
tion of  Founder's  Day  and  Chapter  Day,  and  is  made  the  elab- 
orate event  of  the  year.  Upwards  of  seventy-five  to  a  hundred 
Kappa  girls  assemble  at  that  time. 

During  the  second  semester,  Kappa  gives  her  large  formal 
annual  dance,  to  which  she  invites  members  of  outside  soror- 
ities. In  the  spring  the  ever  enjoyable  "Tri  Delta  Picnic"  takes 
place,  and  a  series  of  receptions  is  given  the  Faculty. 

Kappa  Chapter  made  one  of  the  best  scholarship  records 
found  among  Lincoln  sororities  at  the  mid-semester  report,  and 
has  initiated  eight  very  strong  freshmen  this  year,  beside  sev- 
eral good  upper  classmen.  Mayme  Hartley,  a  new  initiate,  re- 
ceived a  state  commission  to  visit  and  report  on  social  condi- 
tions in  the  Philippine  Islands,  Gov.  Poynter  receiving  her  re- 
port with  sincere  praise. 

Kappa  Chapter  is  now  president  of  the  local  Pan-Hellenic 
Association.     1905-'06   report  recorded  the  following  positions: 

President  University  Girls  Club,  Second  Asst.  German  De- 
partment ;  and  members  on  Annual  Board,  Y.  W.  C.  A.  Cabinet, 
Senior  and  Junior  Societies,  Freshman  and  Sophomore  Basket 
Ball  Teams,  German,  Latin  and  English  clubs. 

Kappa  will  entertain  the  Eighth  National  Convention  in  the 
summer  of  1908.

Lambda 

Organization. 

Lambda  Chapter  was  installed  at  Baker  University,  Bald- 
win, Kansas,  Mar.  12,  1895,  by  Hattie  Berry  Morley,  of  Delta, 
with  whom  a  great  deal  of  the  correspondence  preliminary  to 
petitioning  for  a  charter  had  been  conducted. 

In  the  spring  of  1890,  a  local  sorority  had  been  established 
at  Baker  named  the  Zeta  Iota  Chi,  with  the  ultimate  object  in

view  of  obtaining  a  charter  from  a  national.  Tri  Delta  was  the 
sorority  chosen  for  first  application  and  of  the  eight  charter 
members  of  Zeta  Iota  Chi,  five  later  became  members  of  Tri 
Delta.  The  Petition  was  sent  to  Delta  Delta  Delta  in  Decem- 
ber, 1894,  and  Dr.  Caroline  Edgar  Erdman  announced  the  af- 
firmative vote  on  Mar.  1,  1895.  On  Tuesday  night,  Mar.  12, 
twenty-one  Zetas  became  Tri  Deltas  and  on  Mar.  13,  at  the  home 
of  Mrs.  Cutter,  Lambda  made  its  first  formal  appearance,  giv- 
ing a  reception  to  the  other  societies  and  the  faculty.

Chapter  Data. 

A  Chapter  house  has'  been  successfully  maintained  for  sev- 
eral years.  The  parlor  was  furnished  by  the  Alumnae,  the  re- 
mainder by  the  Chapter.  Their  renting  days  they  hope  will  soon 
be  over,  as  a  new  house  has  been  built  for  them  at  a  cost  of  $10,- 
000.00,  to  be  occupied  in  1906-7  and  which  ulrfmately  will  be 
their  own. 

'  Meetings  are  held  each  Fridey  night.  A  large  formal 
party  is  given  each  term  and  a  Tri  Delta  breakfast  during  Com- 
mencement Week.  Last  spring  vacation  brought  a  "House 
Party"  for  the  Chapter,  given  by  Anna  Hoch  at  her  home,  "The 
Governor's  Mansion,"  Topeka. 

The  banner  for  Lambda  Chapter  designed  and  executed  by 
Georgiana  Reed,  aroused  much  attention  at  the  Third  National 
Convention  (1897)  and  is  perhaps  the  oldest  elaborate  one  in  the 
sorority.  It  is  painted  in  water  colors  on  white  satin  and 
swings  from  a  golden  rod  by  the  tri-colored  cord.  The  design 
is  the  figure  of  Poseidon  in  a  golden  chariot,  driving  three 
horses  through  the  waves.  In  his  right  hand  is  the  Trident,  above 
his  head  the  Crescent,  while  there  is  a  Star  on  the  fore-head  of 
each  horse.  At  the  top  of  the  banner,  are  emblazoned  three 
golden  Deltas,  while  in  the  three  triangular  portions  of  the 
lower  part  are  the  pine  and  the  pansies. 


150  History  of  delta  delta  delta. 

Lambda  Chapter  had  something  of  an  interest  in  national 
affairs  last  year,  when  their  Anna  Hoch  was  invited,  as  daugh- 
ter of  the  Governor,  E.  W.  Hoch,  to  stand  as  Sponsor  at  the 
christening  of  the  Battleship  Kansas.  The  christening  took 
place  Aug.  12,  1905,  at  Camden,  N.  J.  Another  Lambda 
girl,  Ora  Allen,  made  the  trip  as  part  of  the  official  party,  to 
act  as  Maid  of  Honor.  The  christening  was  effected  with  a 
smooth  and  beautiful  ceremony  and  Psi  Chapter  girls  of  Phila- 
delphi  having  been  invited  for  the  occasion  were  there  to  witness 
and  to  greet.  The  ceremony  was  also  somewhat  unique,  as  the 
Kansas  was  the  first  battleship  in  the  world  to  be  christened 
with  water  alone.  The  sponsor  was  presented  with  a  bracelet 
of  dull  gold  ornamented  with  raised  water  lilies,  encrusted  with 
emeralds  and  bearing  on  the  inner  side  an  appropriate  inscrip- 
tion.

Sigma 

Organization. 

Sigma  Chapter  was  installed  at  Wesleyan  University,  Mid- 
dletown,  Conn.,  Mar.  15,  1895,  by  Sarah  Ida  Shaw,  (G.  C.  E.), 
Emily  F.  Allen  (Editor  Trident),  Grace  L.  Bond  and  S.  Eliza- 
beth Jones,  all-  of  Alpha. 

As  early  as  1891,  the  petitioning  of  Tri  Delta  for  a  charter 
was  agitated  at  Wesleyan,  when  Maud  Muzzy,  one  of  the  first 
year  initiates  of  Alpha,  was  a  student  there  and  Sarah  Ida  Shaw 
was  a  teacher  at  Meriden,  eight  miles  away.  No  plans  ma- 
terialized, however,  until  thirteen  girls  in  A.  K.  U.;  an  open  so- 
ciety in  the  University,  began  under  the  leadership  of  Mary 
McKay  to  think  and  plan  for  a  national  sorority  chapter.  When 
it  came  to  a  question  o'f  which  sorority  it  should  be,  one  of  their 
number,  Anna  J.  Kellogg  was  urgent  for  an  application  to  be 
made  first  to  Tri  Delta,  she  having  become  interested  in  Tri

Delta  while  a  pupil  of  Miss  Shaw's  at  Meriden.  Finally  a 
delegate,  Grace  Bunnell,  was  sent  to  Alpha  Chapter  and  upon 
her  return  the  petition  was  immediately  drawn  up  and  formally 
presented. 

On  March  19,  the  local  sororities  then  existing  there,  Phi 
Sigma  and  A.  K.  U.  tendered  to  Sigma  Chapter  of  A  A  A  the 
first  national  sorority  there,  a  reception  in  recognition  of  their 
advent.

Chapter  Data. 

A  Chapter  room  is  maintained  where  meetings  are  held  every 
Friday  evening.  The  celebration  of  initiation,  Founders'  Day 
and  Chapter  Day  are  here  the  only  formal  social  events  but  many 
informal  affairs  are  given  at  the  homes  of  resident  members  and 
alumnae.  Sigma  girls  have  always  been  active  in  class,  literary 
societies,  college  publications  and  Y.  W.  C.  A.,  and  have  en- 
joyed their  quota  of  honors.  They  have  been  girls  above  the 
average  in  scholarship  and  the  Chapter  percentage  of  graduation 
is  high. 

In  1905  and  1906,  Sigma  held  the  presidency  of  '06,  four

Upsilon 

Organization. 

Upsilon  Chapter  was  installed  at  Northwestern  University, 
Evanston,  111.,  June  1st,  1895,  by  Eleanor  Milchrist,  Epsilon,  and 
Hattie  (Berry)  Morely,  of  Delta.  The  girls  began  working  for 
their  petition  early  in  the  year,  their  aim  from  the  first  being  Tri 
Delta.  They  did  not  receive  their  charter  until  late  in  the  year 
as  one  of  the  eastern  Chapters  was  dubious  about  granting  a 
charter  so  far  west.  Initiation  was  hurried  through  on  June  1 
before  the  girls  separated  for  the  summer.  The  next  fall  but  five 
returned  and  then  the  struggle  began.  With  six  strong  sororities 
already  in  the  field  the  new  one  had  to  fight  for  its  existence.  But 
at  the  end  of  the  year  the  Chapter  numbered  15.  It  was  put  on 
a  firm  basis  and  has  flourished  ever  since.

Chapter  Data. 

The  sororities  at  Northwestern  University  have  their  fra- 
ternity rooms  on  the  fourth  floor  of  one  of  the  women's  dor- 
mitories. Here  they  hold  meetings  every  week,  feeling  very 
secure  in  their  little  "sky-parlor."  The  time  of  the  meeting  is 
from  five  to  seven,  social  and  business  sessions  are  combined,  a 
supper  being  served  by  a  committee  of  three  each  time. 

In  former  years,  the  sororities  were  not  compelled  to  pay 
room  rent,  but  this  year  there  is  some  talk  of  charging  from 
$25.00  to  $50.00  per  year  for  a  room,  according  to  the  size  of  the 
room. 

Upsilon  Chapter  owns  its  furnishings  and  tries  each  year  to 
add  something  in  the  way  of  china,  silver,  pictures,  or  anything 
that  the  Chapter  is  especially  in  need  of.  A  piano  is  the  next 
thing  in  view. 

The  important  social  functions  for  each  year  are  Informal 
Dance  for  Initiates,  Initiation  Banquet,  Formal  Dance  for  other 
Sororities,  Christmas  Party,  and  Alumnae  Luncheon. 


CHAPTER    HISTORIES — UPSILON.  155 

One  of  the  peculiar  local  customs  is  on  certain  days  of  field 
sports  to  have  a  "Sorority  Dash/'  where  each  sorority  has  its 
colors  worn  by  a  runner.  The  silver,  gold  and  blue  has  been 
first  at  the  goal  its  share  of  times  in  this  mock  trial  of  strength, 
just  as  it  has  also  achieved  distinction  in  its  real  trials.

the  residence  of  Prof.  Kellerman.  It  was  appropriate  that 
Gamma  and  Zeta  should  aid  in  this  installation,  as  two  of  Nu's 
charter  members  had  received  inspiration  from  these  Chapters.

Chapter  Data. 

Meetings  have  been  held  at  the  homes  on  each  Saturday 
night,  a  goodly  number  of  the  girls  being  residents  of  the  city. 
During  the  past  year,  however,  a  chapter  room  has  been  rented. 

The  initiation  banquet  is  made  an  Alumnae  reunion  affair, 
the  mid-winter  term  sees  a  formal  reception  and  dance  combined, 
and  the  spring  a  tally-ho  ride,  village  dance  and  supper,  or 
something  largely  informal.

Omicron 

Organization. 

Omicron  Chapter  was  installed  at  Syracuse  University, 
Syracuse,  N.  Y.,  Oct.  30  and  31,  1896,  by  Sara  Ida  Shaw  Martin, 
of  Alpha,  assisted  by  Edith  M.  Wait,  Bertha  Jackson  and  Loraine 
Thomas,  of  Beta,  Annie  Sherburne  and  Emily  Lucia,  of  Eta,  and 
Mabel  Terry,  of  Gamma. 

The  petitioners  had  been  a  local  since  1895,  known  as  Chi 
Alpha,  organized  by  Mrs.  B.  W.  Brown  and  Ethel  Embury  for 
the  purpose  of  securing  a  charter  in  a  national.  Ten  names  ap- 
peared upon  the  petition  to  Delta  Delta  Delta,  which  petition 
was  granted  in  something  over  a  year  after  its  presentation.  The 
initiation  service  took  place  at  the  home  of  Mrs.  B.  W.  Brown, 
on  Crouse  Avenue,  during  the  afternoon  of  October  thirtieth  and 
was  probably  more  elaborate  than  ever  before  attempted.  In  the 
evening  a  reception  followed  at  the  home  of  Ethel  Embury  and 
upon  the  evening  of  October  thirty-first  was  the  installation  of 
officers  and  a  banquet  at  Hotel  Vanderbilt.  All  of  the  women's 
sororities  entertained  in  honor  of  Omicron.

Chapter  Data. 

A  Chapter  House  has  been  successfully  maintained  from  the 
very  first  year.  The  first  house  was  at  301  Marshall  St.,  the 
present  one  is  at  301  Waverly  Avenue.  The  house  is  owned  by 
Prof.  Holzworth,  the  husband  of  an  honorary  member.  It  con- 
tains fifteen  rooms,  $1500.00  worth  of  furniture  has  been  accum- 
ulated, a  rental  of  $660.00  a  year  is  paid  and  the  Chapter  is  cre- 
ating an  endowment  fund  by  a  $25.00  per  capita  graduate  tax. 
The  annual  events  with  this  Chapter  are  a  Freshmen  Party,  a 
Mother's  and  Patroness  Party,  Alumnae  Reception,  Initiation 
Banquet  and  Senior  Banquet.  Last  year  a  reception  was  given 
to  all  other  sororities  and  to  the  Faculty  on  October  second. 

Fresh  and  pleasant  in  the  memory  of  one  hundred  and  sev- 
enty-five Tri  Deltas,  representing  every  Chapter  and  Alliance,  are 
the  days  of  the  Seventh  National  Convention  in  Syracuse,  and  to 
Omicron  Chapter  is  gathered  its  full  measure  of  praise  and 
gratitude  for  the  purely  unselfish,  caretaking  and  thoughtful  man- 
ner in  which  the  Convention  was  entertained.  The  business 
ability  of  the  Chapter  took  care  of  major  and  minor  matters  so 
uniformly  well  that  the  Convention  was  able  to  accomplish  an 
unprecedented  amount  of  business  most  easily,  and  business  and 
pleasure  met  and  mingled  and  parted  with  correct  measure  and 
manner. 

Omicron  graduated  twelve  girls  this  year  and  ten  of  these 
took  the  Model  Initiation  Rites  of  the  Third  or  Circle  Degree  be- 
fore the  assembled  Convention.

Madison,  Wis.,  April,  1,  1898,  by  Eva  Barker  and  Ethel  Mackin- 
tosh, of  Upsilon,  and  the  inspiration  for  its  formation  came  from 
this  Chapter.  There  was  no  public  local  organization  before  the 
charter  was  granted.     The  idea  had  its  origin  in  a  group  of  four

girls  who  were  rooming  in  the  same  house,  but  no  plan  was  con- 
ceived until  some  time  after  the  rumors  had  begun  to  float  in 
the  college  circles  that  a  new  sorority  was  to  be  organized. 
Three  of  the  girls  remained  in  their  junior  year,  and  with  the 
available  material  which  they  saw,  they  considered  that  the  time 
was  ripe  for  a  serious  effort.  The  application  was  sent  in  the 
late  fall.  Just  before  the  holiday  vacation,  Mrs.  Elizabeth  Gibbs 
Palmer,  Vice  President  of  Beta  Province,  came  to  inspect  the 
girls.  In  March,  news  was  received  of  a  favorable  decision,  and 
the  initiation  ceremonies  and  banquet  were  held  at  the  home  of 
one  of  the  girls,  on  the  evening  of  Friday,  April  1st.

Chapter  Data. 

In  1903,  this  chapter  made  a  three  year  lease  of  a  Chapter 
House  and  in  1903  renewed  the  same  lease  for  two  years.  Be- 
sides meeting  a  rental  expense  of  $840.00  a  year,  Mu  Chapter  has 
furnished  its  home  with  credit  to  itself.  A  furniture  fund  was 
started  at  first  by  each  alumna  giving  ten  dollars  and  each  active 
girl  twenty  dollars.  Since  that  time  substantial  additions  have 
been  made  each  year  out  of  the  profits  of  house-keeping  and  also 
many  handsome  gifts  have  been  received  from  alumna.  The 
treasurer's  books  for  1905-6  showed  the  year's  expenditures  to 
have  been  $3,400.25.  There  are  seventeen  rooms  in  this  house 
and  fourteen  girls  have  lived  in  it  the  past  year. 

Besides  the  informal  dancing,  card  and  dinner  parties  given 
each  year  at  the  Chapter  House,  one  formal  and  two  informal 
parties  are  given  in  rented  halls.  The  freshmen  annually  enter- 
tain the  freshmen  of  the  other  sororities  by  a  formal  reception 
and  each  of  the  other  classes  entertain  once  a  year. 

During  1905-1906,  the  Presidency  of  the  Girl's  Athletic 
Association  was  held  by  this  Chapter  and  an  active  part  taken  in 
this  line  of  work  by  many  of  the  members.

Xi  Chapter  was  installed  in  the  Woman's  College,  Baltimore, 
M'd.,  Nov.  25,  1898,  at  the  Hotel  Allamount,  Eutaw  Place,  by 
Elizabeth  Gibbs  Palmer,  of  Gamma  Chapter,  Grand  Vice  Presi- 
dent of  Beta  Province.  The  local  called  Tau  Delta,  petitioned

Chapter  Data. 

Following  the  custom  of  the  College,  this  Chapter  has  no 
Chapter  House  but  a  room  for  meeting  in  one  of  the  Dormitories, 
Glitner  Hall.  This  they  have  furnished  in  Mission  style.  Here 
are  held  Thursday  afternoon  teas  each  week.  Business  meetings 
are  called  each  Saturday  evening.  Meetings  occur  once  a  month 
in  the  homes  of  the  alumnae.  "A  Coming  Out  Party"  for  new 
members  and  a  "Year  End  Banquet"  are  annual  features. 

The  Pan-Hellenic  movement  among  the  women's  sororities 
has  been  especially  successful  here  and  the  report  of  one  member 
of  Xi,  Miss  Sara  La  Maistre  Johnson,  on  the  local  Pan-Hellenic 
Association  and  its  work,  which  was  made  at  the  solicitation  of 
the  officers  of  the  Second  Inter-sorority  Conference,  commanded 
wide  attention  and  interest  in  fraternity  and  college  circles. 
See  Trident,  Vol.  XIII,  No.  3. 

With  this  chapter  rested  the  burden  of  the  editing  and  pub- 
lishing of  the  Trident  for  three  years,  from  1902-1905.  The 
ability  to  accept  and  perform  this  work  was  remarkable  in  so 
young  a  chapter,  it  having  been  established  but  four  years  when 
the  work  was  undertaken.     The  burdens  put  upon  the  home  and

business  life  of  Baltimore  by  the  great  fire  made  it  impossible 
to  continue  in  this  work  but  the  volumes  of  the  magazine  issued 
here  remain  as  a  monument  to  the  industry,  energy  and  good 
taste  of  their  management. 

This  Chapter  also  has  the  honor  of  mothering  the  edition  of 
the  first  song  book,  Nov.,  1905. 

A  commendable  loyalty  to  an  enthusiasm  for  the  Alma 
Mater  was  evidenced  at  Baltimore,  when  for  1905-'0G  all  the 
sororities  turned  into  the  fund  for  the  college  debt  what  would 
have  been  used  for  social  affairs  and  held  simple  and  inexpensive 
little  events  for  themselves.

Chapter  Data. 

A  Chapter  House  is  maintained,  leased  for  five  years  at  a 
rent  of  $840.00  a  year,  the  furniture  of  which  has  all  been  pur- 
chased by  the  Chapter  and  is  of  a  handsome  character. 

Dances,  general  Receptions,  Faculty  Receptions,  and  weekly 
informal  evenings  at  Chapter  House  constitute  the  amusements. 

The  list  of  college  honors  speaks  plainly  for  the  great  activ- 
ity of  these  girls  in  all  phases  of  college  life.  While  the  earth- 
quake and  fire  at  San  Francisco  was  a  great  disaster  to  Universi- 
ty circles,  yet  Pi  Chapter  had  much  for  which  to  be  thankful, 
even  in  the  midst  of  her  great  sorrow.  Their  president,  Louise  Reid, 
lost  two  sisters  and  a  niece,  killed  by  falling  buildings  at  Santa 
Rosa,  and  Violet  Patterson  lost  her  home  in  San  Francisco. 
Many  of  the  chapters  of  the  different  sororities  and  fraternities 
there  lost  a  very  heavy  per  cent  of  their  enrollment  through  this 
great  disaster,  but  Pi  has  commenced  1906-'07  with  new  cour- 
age and  bright  prospects. 

The  following  college  positions  were  reported  for  1905-'06 : 
Assistant  in  Chemistry ;  tennis  champion ;  captain  Freshman 
Basket  Ball  team ;  secretary  A.  W.  S. ;  members  on  Prytanean,

Chapter  Data. 

Although  this  is  a  young  chapter  in  a  school  where  many 
other  fraternities  have  preceded  it,  yet  the  three  years  of  its 
existence  record  a  goodly  number  of  undertakings. 

In  social  lines,  1903-1904  hold  in  its  list  two  formal  dances, 
at  Brinkerhoff  Hall,  three  Theatre  Parties,  Initiate's  Luncheon 
at  Sherry's,  Opening  Luncheon  at  White  Plains,  Pan-Hellenic 
Reception  besides  many  minor  affairs. 

The  first  formal  party  of  1904-1905  was  a  dance,  then  came 
a  Luncheon  at  the  Manhattan,  followed  by  a  Theatre  Party  giv- 
en in  honor  of  Janet  Priest,  of  Theta,  who  was  "Muggsy"  in  the 
""Maid  and  the  Mummy  Company,"  playing  in  New  York  at  that 
time.  An  initiation  luncheon  and  a  luncheon  at  White  Plain? 
were  the  other  larger  attempts.

Spencer,  (Grand  Vice  President  Alpha  Province),  Omicron,  and 
Elizabeth  Tumbleson,  (Grand  Secretary),  Xi. 

As  early  as  1898,  petitions  from  Bucknell  had  been  received 
but  no  degree  of  success  had  been  attained  until  this  group  took 
up  the  matter  in  1902.  Their  persistence  and  the  very  loyal  sup- 
port of  faculty  and  friends  procured  the  necessary  personal  in- 
vestigation which  revealed  so  favorable  a  situation  that  the  grant 
was  made.

Although  having  but  little  more  than  two  years  of  college 
existence  behind  it,  these  girls  have  had  much  to  report.  Re- 
ceptions, spreads,  and  parties,  have  been  one  side  of  their 
social  life,  excursions  into  the  beautiful  country  surrounding  the 
University  another.  Many  functions  in  honor  of  the  Chapter 
have  been  given  by  the  patronesses  and  friends.  An  Annual 
Symposium  is  given  at  the  close  of  the  school  year.  Besides  the

en  in  honor  of  Visiting  Delegate,  R.  Louise  Fitch,  Nov.  15, 
1905,  at  the  Burkley  Imperial  and  it  fell  to  the  lot  of  Tri  Delta 
this  year  to  give  the  "big  party,"  as  it  is  dubbed  in  college  phrase 
here.  The  date  of  this  was  January  12th.  The  Armory  where 
it  was  held  was  gay  with  silver,  gold  and  blue.  About  four  hun- 
dred guests  were  present.  This  "big  party"  is  a  custom  pecu- 
liar to  the  institution,  each  sorority  entertaining  all  the  other  fra- 
ternities in  school  once  in  four  years.  Five  minor  social  events 
were  reported  between  this  and  the  Farewell  breakfast  given 
June  12,  1906,  to  close  the  college  year. 

The  Chapter  reported  the  following  honors  and  positions 
for  1905-'06: 

One  Phi  Beta  Kappa. 

Two  Scholarships,  one  instructor  in  physical  training  and  one  in 
English  department. 

Two  presidents  of  Literary  Societies. 

Vice  President  and  Cabinet  Officer  of  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

Vice  President  of  Freshman  class. 

A  pretty  home  has  been  rented  for  1906-7,  completely  fur- 
nished, and  a  most  successful  year  is  being  enjoyed.  In  the  sec- 
ond year  of  her  existence  Phi  Chapter  has  dared  to  assume  the 
burdens  of  conducting  a  chapter  house  although  her  rivals  had 
hesitated  to  do  so  for  twelve  and  fourteen  years  but  her  success 
and  satisfaction  have  been  great.

176   *  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Chi 

Organization. 

Chi  Chapter  was  installed  at  the  University  of  Mississippi, 
on  Sept.  22,  1904,  in  the  Law  Lecture  room  of  University  Build- 
ing, by  Elizabeth  Tumbleson  Leutscher,  Grand  President,  of  Xi, 
R.  Louise  Fitch,  Grand  Vice  President  of  Beta  Province,  and 
Irene  Olson,  both  of  Epsilon,  assisted  by  Ola  Price,  previously 
initiated  at  the  Sixth  National  Convention. 

The  petitioning  body  was  a  local  Tau  Delta  Theta  and  was 
highly  recommended  by  every  Greek  letter  fraternity  at  the  Uni- 
versity. It  had  been  established  in  1896  and  had  been  unusually 
prosperous. 

A  unique  feature  in  the  installation  of  Chi  Chapter  was  the 
arranging  of  the  festivities,  which  took  place  at  the  home  of 
Vice  Chancellor  Dr.  Jones,  in  such  a  manner  as  to  mark  the  fare- 
well to  Tau  Delta  Theta  symbols,  as  well  as  the  introduction  to 
the  insignia  of  Delta  Delta  Delta. 

It  was  peculiar  and  unfortunate  that  three  of  the  petitioners  were 
ill  at  school  with  typhoid  fever  at  the  time  of  the  initiation  and 
could  not  attend.  Another  was  delayed  by  poor  train  connections 
and  did  not  arrive  until  the  morning  following  the  initiation.

Chapter  Data. 

Many  large  and  small  social  functions  have  been  reported 
by  Chi  Chapter  in  its  two  years  of  existence,  and  not  the  least 
joyful  of  these  smaller  private  affairs  are  those  which  are  held 
to  celebrate  the  changing  of  some  old  Tau  Delta  Theta  into  a 
full-fledged  Tri  Delta.     On  one  of  these  occasions,  the  wife  of

one  of  the  new  Professors,  Calvin  S.  Brown,  was  the  initiate, 
who  as  Maude  Morrow  had  been  a  member  of  the  old  local. 
The  following-  press  clipping  speaks  for  itself: 

"The  University  Community  makes  a  double  gain  in  securing  the 
services  of  Dr.  Brown,  in  that  he  brings  with  him  his  bride,  one  of  the 
most  distinguished  graduates  of  the  University,  Miss  Maude  Morrow, 
who  won  distinction  here  as  a  student,  taking  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of 
Arts  and  Master  of  Arts  and  who  until  recently  has  filled  the  chair  of 
Greek  in  Agnes  Scott  College." 

The  Chapter  hopes  to  maintain  a  Chapter  Hall  as  soon  as 

the  new  Science  Hall  is  completed  enough  to  obtain  a  room 
therein.     Six  of  their  girls  take  B.  S.  degree  in  June,  1907.

Chapter  rooms  are  rented  near  the  University.  In  these 
weekly  meetings  and  various  social  affairs  are  held.  Although 
on  account  perhaps  of  college  discriminations  against  women  un- 
der-graduate  students,  the  active  Chapter  has  been  small  for  a 
time,  the  zeal  and  enthusiasm  have  been  most  commendable. 
(Recently  more  classes  have  been  opened  to  women  at  this  Uni- 
versity) . 

The  financial  management  has  been  excellent,  for  the 
Chapter  rents  two  large  rooms  near  the  University  and  the  treas- 
urer of  the  Chapter  reports  the  handling  of  considerable  sums  for 
various  other  matters.

Too  young  to  have  extended  mention  perhaps,  but  active 
enough  to  be  in  the  full  swing  of  all  phases  of  college  life,  schol- 
astic, athletic  and  social,  Alpha  Xi  is  rapidly  proving  that  it  was 
neither  a  mistake  to  put  a  second  Chapter  in  the  sunny  southland 
nor  yet  another  to  place  a  second  one  in  a  college  for  women 
only,  especially  when  both  of  these  colleges  belong  to  the  list  of 
the  "thirteen  best"  designated  by  the  United  States  Commissioner 
of  Education. 

Alpha  Xi  reported  twenty-four  honorary  and  elective  col- 
lege positions  for  1905-6.

N.  B. — Th<*  term  "honorary  member"  perhaps  needs  explanation. 
Until  the  Fourth  National  Convention  there  v  as  but  one  ruling  on  the 
subject,  that  of  the  original  constitution  entitling  each  chapter  to  three 
honorary  members.  It  was  found  that  customs  varied,  some  fully  initiat- 
ing the  three  selected,  thus  entitling  them  to  wear  the  badge,  and  some 
merely  giving  them  the  colors  or  oledge  pins  and  regarding  them  as 
patronesses.  Since  the  ruling  of  1900,  no  honorary  members  have  re- 
ceived initiation,  thev  being  at  present  merely  patronesses  of  the  various 
chapters.  Those  initiated  prior  to  1900  were  women  of  national  promin- 
ence, members  of  the  different  faculties,  or  wives  of  various  faculty 
members,  usually  women  holding  college  degrees. — B.  L.  P. 


ALLIANCE  HISTORIES 


General  Note 

Until  quite  recently  all  the  work  on  the  Alliance  movement 
has  been  in  the  cities  where  the  active  chapters  exist,  with  but 
one  exception,  "The  Chicago  Alliance,"  and  that  of  course  was 
very  near  to  Upsilon.  All  the  Alliances  assist  the  Active  Chapters 
in  rushing  season,  re-union  affairs,  and  Pan-Hellenic  Association 
work  and  help  them  financially.  Each  Alliance  member  is 
pledged  to  the  support  of  the  Trident.  Regular  communication 
is  kept  up  between  the  distant  members  by  means  of  "Round 
Robin  Letters."  All  Chapters  report  interchange  of  entertain- 
ment with  their  Alliances. 

M.  Katherine  Ratterman,  of  Cincinnati,  Zeta  Chapter,  was 
appointed  Alliance  Supervisor  for  1905-6  by  Grand  President, 
Elizabeth  Tumbleson  Leutscher  and  the  Seventh  National  Con- 
vention showed  its  appreciation  of  her  work  by  adding  an  Al- 
liance Officer  to  the  Grand  Council  number  and  electing  Miss 
Ratterman  unanimously  to  that  position.  Under  her  care  and 
attention  the  interest  and  zeal  in  various  city  centers  has  awak- 
ened and  several  city  Alliances  are  in  process  of  formation,  those 
in  Milwaukee,  Wis.,  and  Des  Moines,  la.,  promising  speedy  re- 
alization. 

The  Alliances  can  scarcely  be  listed  in  any  other  way  than  in 
order  of  their  formation. 

Alpha  Alliance 

The  girls  of  Boston  University  have  the  honor  of  forming 
the  first  Alumnae  Alliance,  as  well  as  of  founding  the  first  Chap- 
ter of  Delta  Delta  Delta. 

Alpha  Alumnae  Alliance  was  organized  August  29,  1892,  at 
the  home  of  Emily  F.  Allen,  Pinckney  St.,  Boston,  by  Sarah  Ida 
Shaw,  Charlotte  Joslin,  Emily  F.  Allen  and  Grace  Ayres  of  Al- 
pha.    The  First  National  Convention  (1893)  recognized  the  Al- 

(182) 


EPSILON    ALLIANCE CHICAGO    ALLIANCE.  183 

Hance  officially,  making  extensive  provision  for  the  Alliance 
movement  and  putting  the  matters  of  future  organization,  ritual 
work  and  constitution  in  the  hands  of  the  founders  of  this  first 
Alliance.  Alpha  Alliance  was  represented  at  the  Second  Nation- 
al Convention. 

The  meetings  of  Alpha  Alliance  are  held  the  first  Saturday 
of  each  month  of  the  school  year,  usually  in  the  rooms  of  the 
active  chapter.  Besides  business  sessions,  both  literary  and  so- 
cial sessions  are  enjoyed  and  on  several  occasions  speakers  have 
been  provided  and  open  meetings  held. 

Nearly  one  hundred  per  cent  of  Alpha  Chapter  graduates 
have  been  enrolled  since  the  Alliance  was  formed.  A  joint  com- 
mittee of  Chapter  and  Alliance  has  charge  of  mutual  work. 

Epsilon  Alliance 

Epsilon  Alumnae  Alliance  was  the  second  one  to  form  and 
was  organized  at  Galesburg,  111.,  by  Mrs.  Alta  Marsh  Phillips, 
Martha  Stone,  Lillian  Emrich,  Estell  Johnson  and  Grace  Matte- 
son,  resident  graduates  of  Epsilon  Chapter,  March  2,  1896.  All 
resident  members  of  the  Active  Chapter  come  into  the  Alliance 
upon  leaving  school  and  those  near  enough  to  the  city  to  attend 
any  meetings.  The  monthly  meetings  are  of  a  social  nature  or 
on  fraternity  work  and  philanthophic  lines  are  not  forgotten  as 
each  week  sewing  is  done  for  the  free  kindergarten.  The  Al- 
liance also  in  1904  aided  the  Active  Chapter  in  furnishing  the  re- 
ception room  of  the  free  kindergarten  building. 

They  meet  with  the  Chapter  several  times  during  the  year 
and  take  an  active  part  in  the  Thanksgiving  Banquet  celebra- 
tion, the  chief  Chapter  event  of  each  year. 

Many  of  the  members  hold  offices  in,  and  are  connected 
with  the  various  Literary,  Musical  and  Philanthrophic  organiz- 
ations of  the  city. 

Chicago  Alliance 

Third  in  order,  the  Chicago  Alumna?  Alliance  was  organ- 
ized by  Eleanor  Dorcas  Pond  Mann,  one  of  the  founders  of  Al- 
pha Chapter*,  at  1223  Milton  Ave.,  Chicago,  May  15,  1897.  Her 
work  in  effecting  this  organization  was  an  evidence  of  the  abiding 
interest  which  she  has  alwavs  manifested  in  the  welfare  of  Tri 


184  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Delta.  Those  joining  were  Mrs.  Edna  Wolfe  Pearson,  Lambda, 
Mrs.  Martha  Barden  Cole  and  Mrs.  Ola  Ingersoll  McChesney, 
of  Epsilon,  Myrtle  N.  Stillwell,  Ella  F.  Tobias  and  Jessie  Milne, 
of  Gamma,  Alma  S.  Fick,  of  Zeta,  Lottie  B.  Watson,  Grace 
Clough,  Franc  Watson  and  Lorena  G.  Watson,  of  Upsilon,  and 
Margaret  Emerson,  of  Alpha;  Delta  Chapter  was  also  repre- 
sented. 

Meetings  were  held  with  great  regularity  for  a  time,  but 
later  great  distances  in  residence  proved  an  almost  insur- 
mountable obstacle  and  the  Alliance  has  considered  it  best  to  be 
merged  with  the  Upsilon  Alliance,  now  in  process  of  organiz- 
ation. Many  more  Tri  Deltas  have  been  located  in  Chicago  and 
suburban  cities  and  the  new  organization  promises  to  be  very 
strong. 

During  the  past  spring,  Ethel  Andrews,  Epsilon,  and  Amy 
Olgen  Parmelee,  Upsilon,  have  arranged  for  monthly  luncheons 
of  all  Chicago  Deltas,  and  representatives  from  Upsilon  Active. 
Three  have  now  been  held,  and  the  interest  and  attendance  is 
increasing  each  time.  The  luncheons  are  held  the  first  Saturday 
in  each  month  at  the  Carricabbie  Rooms,  Madison  street. 

Zeta  Alliance 

Zeta  Alumnae  Alliance  was  the  fourth  to  form  and  was,  it 
might  be  said,  the  first  fruits  of  the  Chicago  Alliance  and  the 
enthusiasm  aroused  by  the  Third  National  Convention.  It  was 
organized  at  Cincinnati,  Sept.  2,  1897.  The  formation  was  in 
charge  of  Alma  Fick  of  Zeta,  formerly  of  the  Chicago  Alliance, 
and  the  services  took  place  at  her  home.  Those  who  presented 
themselves  for  initiation  were  Emma  B.  Kinney,  Estelle  M. 
Riley,  Lucy  M.  Lambdin,  Grace  Marshall,  Mrs.  Emma  H.  Bald- 
win, Mary  S.  Evans  and  Florence  Lawler.  Four  others  were 
shortly  after  enrolled,  Agnes  R.  Powers,  Caroline  A.  Powell, 
Sadie  A.  Fortney,  and  Stella  M.  Fortney. 

Nearly  one  hundred  per  cent  of  chapter  membership  is  en- 
rolled and  as  their  membership  now  exceeds  fifty,  the  attend- 
ance at  all  meetings  is  large  and  courses-  of  study,  lectures  and 
plays  are  attempted,  besides  the  social,  business  and  fraternity 
features. 

A  great  deal  of  Social  Settlement  work  has  been  done  both 
by  the  individual  members  and  by  the  Alliance  as  an  organiz- 


GAMMA  ALLIANCE SIGMA  ALLIANCE.  185 

ation  and  Zeta  is  also  well  represented  in  the  Woman's  Club, 
Press  Club  and  many  other  city  associations. 

Gamma  Alliance 

Gamma  Alumnae  Alliance  was  organized  June  8,  1898,  at 
Gamma  Chapter  Hall,  Adrian,  Mich.  Ella  F.  Tobias,  of  Gam- 
ma, and  recently  of  the  Chicago  Alumnae  Alliance,  conducted  the 
work  and  there  were  enrolled  with  her  as  first  members,  Eliza- 
beth Gibbs  Palmer,  Jean  Stearns  Kimball,  enthusiastic  delegates 
from  the  Third  National  Convention,  Bertha  Page  Robertson, 
Bessie  Leach  Priddy,  Dorothy  E.  Baker,  Julia  Myers  Dewey, 
Abbie  Wakefield  Hamilton,  Clara  B.  Hopkins  and  Mary  M. 
Mbrden. 

Meetings  are  held  the  last  Saturday  in  each  month,  at  the 
homes.  At  least  ninety-five  per  cent  of  Chapter  membership  has 
been  enrolled.  A  feature  of  1904's  work  was  a  reception  to  all 
fraternity  women  in  the  city.  At  least  two  social  functions  are 
given  for  the  Chapter  each  year.  Round  Robin  correspondence 
is  maintained  for  the  benefit  of  the  out  of  town  members.  Once 
a  year  some  meeting  is  made  the  occasion  of  an  excursion  to  the 
home  of  some  out  of  town  member. 

Many  of  the  members  are  active  workers  in  the  various  city 
organizations. 

Sigma  Alliance 

Sigma  Alumnae  Alliance  was  organized  at  Middletown, 
Conn.,  June  28,  1898,  by  Sarah  Tucker  Kurt,  Lucy  Osborne 
Searle  and  Mary  A.  McKay.  Besides  these  three,  the  follow- 
ing were  initiated  at  organization :  Frances  L.  Weeks,  Isabelle  J. 
Church,  Anna  J.  Kellog,  Elizabeth  H.  Rogers,  May  A.  Adams, 
Carrie  T.  Brown,  M.  Grace  Brunell,  Elizabeth  C.  Stevens,  El- 
eanor Newell,  and  Isabelle  M.  Walbridge. 

About  ninety  per  cent  of  Chapter  membership  is  enrolled. 
Many  re-unions  are  undertaken.  Besides  fraternity  work,  this 
Alliance  has  been  devoting  part  of  its  energies  to  New  York 
Social  Settlement  work.  The  interest  of  their  out  of  town 
members  is  held  by  a  very  elaborate  and  effective  system  of 
Round  Robin  letters.  Their  full  official  meetings  are  in  Janu- 
ary and  June  each  year.

Y.,  Oct.  27,  1900,  at  the  home  of  Evelyn  F.  Allen,  by  the  follow- 
ing Omicron  girls :  Clara  Johnson  Champlin,  Evelyn  F.  Allen, 
Daisy  Boon  Phillips,  Anna  Hollis,  Alberta  E.  Perry,  Josephine 
Horn  Brown,  and  Ruth  Ward.  Seventy-five  per  cent  of  the 
Chapter  membership  is  enrolled.  Meetings  are  held  the  first 
Thursday  evening  of  each  month  and  are  largely  of  a  social 
nature. 

This  Alliance  has  been  working  on  and  nearly  completed 
elaborate  initiation  paraphernalia  for  presentation  to  the  Active 
Chapter. 

Theta  Alliance 

Theta  Alumnae  Alliance  was  organized  May  18,  1901,  by  Dr. 
Caroline  Edgar  Erdmann,  at  her  home  in  Minneapolis.  Meet- 
ings are  held  every  two  months  and  news  from  absent  members 
is  given  a  prominent  place  in  the  program.  Sixty-five  per  cent 
of  Chapter  membership  has  been  enrolled. 

This  Alliance  reports  as  members,  four  professional  women, 
three  at  home  girls,  eight  high  school  teachers  and  fourteen  mar- 
ried women.  Some  of  the  individual  members  have  been  very 
active  in  Social  Settlement  work. 

Delta  Alliance 

Delta  Alumnae  Alliance  was  organized  at  Indianola,  la., 
Sept.  24,  1901,,  by  ex-members  of  Delta  Chapter.  The  meetings 
are  held  the  third  Tuesday  of  each  month  and  consist  of  business 
and  literary  or  business  and  social  sessions.  To  each  social  ses- 
sion four  members  of  the  Active  Chapter  are  invited.  Here,  too. 
Chapter  House  work  is  a  part  of  the  activity.  The  Des  Moines 
City  group,  which  is  gradually  organizing,  will  have  as  a  nu- 
cleus a  large  proportion  of  Delta  Chapter  alumnae. 

Eta  Alliance 

Eta  Alumnae  Alliance  was  organized  June,  1902,  in  Bur- 
lington, Vt.,  at  the  home  of  Mrs.  G.  S.  Forbes.  The  members 
petitioning  for  charter  were  Annie  Sherburne,  Eva  Jones,  Helen 


BETA  ALLIANCE — RHO  ALLIANCE.  187 

Hendee,  Hattie  K.  Forbes,  Edith  Smith  Simpson,  Addle  I.  Lee 
and  Abbie  Katherine  Leonard.  Meetings  are  held  the  first  Sat- 
urday evening  of  each  month  and  both  musical  and  literary  pro- 
grams are  enjoyed  as  well  as  social  hours.  All  but  one  Chapter 
graduate  have  joined  the  Alliance  since  its  formation. 

Some  philanthropic  work  is  undertaken  and  the  Alliance  is 
joining  with  other  college  women  in  working  for  the  formation 
of  a  local  College  Club. 

Various  lectures  have  been  given  under  their  auspices.  A 
printed  calendar  of  their  programs  for  each  year  is  issued. 

Beta  Alliance 

Beta  Alumnae  Alliance  was  organized  at  Canton,  N.  Y., 
June  23,  1903,  by  ex-members  of  Beta  Chapter.  Miss  Anna  Hol- 
lis  of  Omicron  Alliance,  had  charge  of  the  Third  Degree  Ritual 
work. 

This  Alliance  enrolls  about  twenty  per  cent  of  Chapter 
membership,  largely  the  resident  girls.  They  are  actively  at 
work  on  enlarging  the  fund  for  the  Chapter  House,  as  well  as 
assisting  in  the  furnishing  of  the  same. 

Each  Commencement  Week  sees  a  very  enjoyable  meeting, 
the  re-union  of  the  resident  Alliance  girls  and  the  out  of  town 
Circle  Degree  members. 

Rho  Alliance 

Rho  Alliance  was  organized  May,  14,  1904,  in  a  class  room 
of  the  Ely  School,  New  York  City.  Mrs.  Chamberlain  (Carrie 
Beddoe),  of  Alpha,  was  the  leading  spirit  in  organization.  Mrs. 
Effie  Danforth  McAfee,  of  Iota  Circle  Degree,  conducted  the 
initiation   services. 

Rho  Alliance  was  organized  by  eight  Tri  Delta  Alumnae 
from  several  colleges :  Carrie  Beddoe  Chamberlain,  Alpha,  Effie 
Danforth,  Iota,  Ella  Tobias,  Gamma,  Marion  Ball,  Laura  Se- 
guine,  Mildred  Robinson,  Rho,  Rose  Scott,  Epsilon,  and  Irene 
Lewis  Bedell,  Beta.  At  the  June  meeting,  the  following  were 
initiated:  Effie  Danforth,  Ella  Tobias,  Rose  Scott,  Irene  Lewis 
Bedell,  Mildred  Robinson,  Marion  Ball,  Sara  Shelley,  Harriet 
Werts,  Anna  Waring  and  Edith  Appell. 

To  the  fourteen  initiated  at  first,  each  vear  has  added  the 


188  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

Rho  Chapter  graduates,  making  seventeen  in  all,  at  the  close  of 
1906. 

The  Alliance  very  much  desires  all  Deltas  in  the  vicinity  to 
make  themselves  known  and  affiliate  with  them.  Meetings  third 
Saturday  afternoon  each  month.  Siprna  Alumnae  residents  in 
New  York  City  are  frequent  visitors  at  Rho  Alliance  meetings. 

A  series  of  luncheons  has  been  started  this  year  and  tf.jse 
attending  report  great  pleasure  to  themselves  and  growing  en- 
thusiasm for  Tri  Delta. 

Denver  Alliance 

The  Denver  Alliance  was  formed  May  11,  1905,  at  Denver, 
Colorado,  and  was  composed  at  first  of  one  representative  each 
of  Alpha,  Epsilon,  Upsilon,  and  Kappa,  and  two  of  Delta.  Six 
more  members  have  joined  since  its  organization. 

A  recent  letter  says :  "If  all  Alliances  are  as  successful  as 
ours,  then  are  they  all  greater  even  than  the  Active  Chapters — 
yea,  each  as  great  as  the  fraternity  itself."  From  this  quotation, 
it  will  be  seen  how  strong  an  organization,  lone  representatives 
of  widely  separated  Chapters  have  been  able  to  form.  Most  en- 
thusiastic reports  of  the  meetings  have  been  received  and  with 
true  western  hospitality  they  are  waiting  and  watching  to  wel- 
come each  Tri  Delta  who  journeys  westward. 

The  regular  roll  call  of  the  Denver  Alliance  for  1905-6 
was  Frances  Bayley  Packard,  Alpha ;  Leonora  Hedendahl,  Epsi- 
lon ;  Sallie  Fisher  Sweet  and  Daisy  Thomas,  Upsilon ;  Maud 
Hazlett,  Kappa;  Fern  Abbott  Richardson,  Kappa;  Persis 
Heaton  and  Lillian  Newland,  Delta,  and  Annie  Lilley,  Eta. 
Others  from  Epsilon,  Pi,  Upsilon  and  Mu  have  met  with  them  at 
various  times.  Picnics  in  the  park,  breakfasts  and  thimble  part- 
ies have  alternated  with  meetings  spent  in  the  study  of  fratern- 
ity topics. 

Los  Angeles  Alliance 

The  Los  Angeles  Alliance  was  formed  at  Los  Angeles,  Cal- 
ifornia, Oct.,  1905,  by  graduates  and  ex-members  of  Pi  Chapter 
and  members  of  other  Chapters,  as  follows:  Lillian  McLaugh- 
/in,  Mable  Worden  Porter,  Ethel  Egan  West,  Martha 
Stone    Hurd,    all    of    Epsilon,  Louise  Johnston,  K.  Courtenay 


MU    ALLIANCE — NU    ALLIANCE.  189 

Johnston,  Florence  Dodge,  Eleanor  Hammack,  all  of  Pi,  Georgia 
Suber  Bertram,  Iota,  Jeannette  Smith,  Delta  and  Beulah 
Wright,  Lambda-Upsilon. 

The  meetings  are  mostly  social  and  are  called  at  such  times 
as  meet  the  convenience  of  the  greatest  number. 

At  Christmas  and  in  June,  formal  events  are  given. 

Mu  Alliance 

Mu  Alliance  was  formed  at  Madison,  Wis.,  Dec.  2,  1906,  at 
the  home  of  Jessie  Nelson  Swanson,  at  the  time  when  the  Visit- 
ing Delegate  was  inspecting  Mu  Chapter. 

Monthly  meetings  were  tried  at  first  but  later  it  seemed 
better  to  vary  these  and  to  attempt  to  have  some  or  all  of  the 
Alliance  members  present  regularly  at  the  Chapter  House  the 
first  Monday  evening  of  each  month. 

Those  initiated  at  the  first  meeting  were  Theo.  B.  Pickford, 
'03 ;  Gertrude  Stillman  Sanborn,  '99 ;  Jessie  Nelson  Swanson, 
'98 ;  Ada  Westenhaver  Weidman,  '99 ;  Florence  Allen,  '00 ;  Ruby 
Peck,  '04.  and  Mary  Egan,  '04;  Ethel  Redfield  Hobbins,  '04; 
has  since  joined. 

While  the  meetings  have  been  very  informal  in  nature,  they 
are  nevertheless  very  earnest,  as  the  Alliance  is  taking  an  active 
part  in  raising  funds  for  the  building  of  a  Chapter  House  for  Mu 
Chapter. 

Nu  Alliance 

The  organization  of  Nu  Alliance  was  accompanied  with 
something  more  than  the  usual  ceremonies,  as  on  March  29, 
1906,  was  held  a  grand  reunion  of  Nu  Chapter  girls,  preparatory 
to  the  formation  of  the  Alliance  on  March  30.  This  day  was 
chosen,  as  it  was  Chapter  Founding  Day. 

Former  Grand  President,  Agnes  Powers  Dunning,  of  Zeta, 
came  to  conduct  the  initiation  service  and  the  following  girls 
were  received:  Ethel  Herrick  Thompson,  Mary  Joyce  Bush, 
Edith  Rees,  Nan  Cannon,  Edna  Armstrong,  Margaret  Reeb, 
Olive  Shurtz,  Frances  Peters  Bierman,  Mima  Weaver,  Sue  Gor- 
man, Fannie  Rockwell,  Edith  Phipps  Wood,  Florence  Held- 
meyer,  Blanche  Skiles  and  Helen  Mills. 

The  service  was  held  at  Mrs.  Thompson's  home,  167  W. 


190  HISTORY  OF  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA. 

10th  Ave.  A  banquet  at  the  Ohio  Club  followed  the  initiation 
and  on  Saturday,  March  31,  another  party  was  given  in  honor  of 
the  three  Zeta  guests,  Mrs.  Dunning  and  Lill  Stevens,  of  Zeta 
Alliance,  and  Mary  Latta,  of  Zeta  Active.  Six  were  initiated 
later. 

Besides  their  own  business  and  social  sessions,  held  the  last 
Saturday  of  each  month,  this  Alliance  has  decided  to  hold  four 
joint  meetings  a  year  with  the  active  Chapter. 

Kappa  Alliance 

Kappa  Alliance  was  organized,  in  thought  at  least,  on  May 
19,  1906,  for  on  that  day  a  group  of  Kappa  Chapter  alumnae  held 
a  meeting  and  decided  upon  organization,  calling  the  first  formal 
meeting  for  initiation  for  the  first  Friday  in  June.  Twelve  resi- 
dent alumnae  of  Lincoln  were  ready  for  the  first  initiation,  more 
joining  afterward.  Daisy  F.  Bonnell  and  Bertha  Du  Teil,  had 
been  initiated  at  Boston  by  Alpha  Alliance  and  they  conducted 
the  services,  initiating  Ellen  H.  Frankish,  Anna  L.  Vore,  Mamie 
Miller,  Sophia  W.  Koehler,  Edna  M.  Gund,  Winifred  Bonnell, 
Maude  Brush,  Pearl  Powers  Fee,  Rae  Challis,  Lynn  Brush, 
Katherine  Lumry,  Alma  Vandeveer  and  Pauline  Whitcomb, 
Meetings  are  held  the  first  Friday  of  each  month.  The  Alliance 
is  planning  with  the  Chapter  for  the  entertaining  of  the  Eighth 
National  Convention,  1908. 

Pi  Alliance 

Perhaps  to  say  Pi  Alliance  is  somewhat  premature  as  these 
very  modest  Tri  Deltas  only  call  themselves,  the  Pi  Alumnae 
Association  of  Berkeley,  California.  In  a  1905  letter  they  say: 
"The  object  of  this  Association  is  to  better  keep  in  touch  with 
the  Active  Chapter,  aid  it  in  every  way  we  can  and  after  three  or 
four  years,  when  more  classes  have  graduated,  form  a  regular 
Alliance.  The  President  and  Secretary  of  this  Association  send 
to  all  girls  not  in  college  a  long,  interesting  letter  at  least  once  a 
month,  full  of  fraternity  news.  We  find  the  plan  a  great  success 
and  shall  soon  be  asking  for  the  Circle  Degree." 

Upsilon  Alliance 

Upsilon  Alumnae  Alliance  is  under  formation  and  promises 


ALLIANCE    HISTORIES.  191 

to  be  very  strong  as  in  addition  to  the  Upsilon  girls  locally  resi- 
dent, many  other  chapters  have  Chicago  representatives,  a  part 
of  whom  were  prominent  in  the  Chicago  Alumnae  Alliance. 

Des  Moines,  Iowa,  has  a  group  of  girls  meeting  regularly 
and  nearly  ready  for  the  Circle  Degree. 

Spokane,  Washington,  will  soon  add  its  name  to  the  Alli- 
ance roll  as  plans  are  nearly  matured  there  for  a  regular  organi- 
zation. 


SUMMARY 


Thanksgiving,  1906,  was  the  eighteenth  birthday  of  Delta 
Delta  Delta.  For  that  time  there  has  been  recorded  the  installa- 
tion of  twenty-four  Chapters,  but  one  of  which  has  been  discon- 
tinued. One  other  charter  was  granted  but  could  scarcely  have 
been  called  established,  the  one  at  Ames  (Iowa  State  College), 
granted  just  before  the  faculty  anti-fraternity  mandate. 

Of  the  twenty-three  Active  Chapters,  all  report  prosperity. 
Ten  are  located  in  state  universities,  eight  in  well  endowed  and 
recognized  universities,  the  remaining  five  in  old  colleges  of  good 
collegiate  rank  wher.e  unusual  zeal  for  the  work  is  constantly 
manifested. 

Of  the  twenty-three  Chapters,  seven  are  at  present  success- 
fully maintaining  Chapter  houses,  Beta,  Kappa,  Lambda,  Omi- 
cron,  Mu,  Pi  and  Phi.  Delta  and  Eta  have  each  had  a  Chapter 
house  when  the  number  of  out  of  town  members  warranted  it. 
Iota  always  occupied  a  house.  Alpha,  Gamma,  Theta,  Sigma, 
Delta  plans  to  have  a  house  again  next  year.  Upsilon, 
Xi,  Rho,  Psi,  Alpha  Xi  and  Eta  have  well  furnished 
Chapter  halls  for  their  meetings.  Such  is  the  custom  of  their 
rival  sororities.  Most  of  these  have  maintained  these  halls  from 
the  first  year  of  their  history.  Chi  anticipates  having  a  Chapter 
hall  soon,  Tau  meets  in  the  woman's  dormitory  according  to  the 
rules  of  the  college.  The  remaining  three  chapters,  Zeta,  Epsi- 
lon,  and  Nu  meet  in  the  homes  of  the  members  as  is  the  custom 
of  the  sororities  in  their  schools. 

Sixteen  Alumnae  Alliances  have  been  formed,  fourteen  so 
situated  as  to  be  working  in  active  co-operation  with  their 
Chapters.  A  half  dozen  other  groups  are  in  various  stages  of 
organization. 

The  general  fraternity  reports  seven  National  Conventions, 
with  an  attendance  of  175  at  the  last  one,,  five  Alumnae  Alliance 
sessions,  three  successful  Province  conventions  in  each  of  its  three- 
Provinces,  a  fourth  voluntary  convention  in  Beta  Province,  and 
representation  and  co-operation  in  every  inter-sorority  conven- 
tion or  conference.     It  also  reports  the  establishment  of  a  well 

(192) 


SUMMARY.  193 

organized  Alumnae  Alliance  section  and  of  systematized  fraternity 
examinations,  conducted  annually  since  1898.  Charters,  initiation 
certificates,  cuts,  seals,  badges,  flags,  pennants  and  other  para- 
phernalia have  all  received  due  attention.  Ritual  work  for  the 
three  degrees,  installation  services  and  constitutions  have  re- 
ceived the  attention  of  each  convention. 

In  publications,  Delta  Delta  Delta  stands  easily  first  in  ac- 
complishment for  its  age,  as  the  fraternity  is  on  the  sixteenth  vol- 
ume of  the  Trident,  the  second  volume  of  the  Triton  and  has 
issued  five  constitutions  and  nine  directories,  with  a  complete 
catalogue  going  to  press.  There  was  issued  in  November,  1905, 
a  song  book  and  early  in  1907  is  the  publication  of  the  history. 
The  establishment  this  year  of  a  comprehensive  system  of 
Chapter  records  and  reports  ensures  for  the  next  history  issued 
unusual  completeness  and  accuracy.  A  finance  system  has  been 
devised  for  the  purpose  of  defraying  the  expenses  of  the  fratern- 
ity at  large,  productive  of  no  deficits,  and  which,  while  it  places 
no  unfair  burdens  upon  any  Chapter,  yet  ensures  representation 
to  all  at  each  convention.  The  income  has  been  large  enough  to 
make  possible  steady  advance  in  business  methods.  But  one 
deficit  has  ever  been  shown  in  the  biennial  balances  and  that  a 
small  one.  The  magazine  is  more  than  self-supporting,  provid- 
ing a  small  salary  for  the  editor. 

Ninth  in  date  of  establishment  and  seventh  in  date  of  rec- 
ognition as  a  national  sorority,  Tri  Delta  now  stands  a  close 
fourth  in  length  of  the  active  Chapter  list  with  the  average  rank 
of  the  schools  in  that  list  second  to  none.  It  was  the  first  Greek 
letter  society  to  make  provisions  in  its  original  constitution  and 
Ritual  work  for  an  Alumnae  Alliance  Section,  doing  so  upon 
organization  (1888).  It  was  the  fourth  to  establish  an  Alumnae 
Chapter  or  Alliance  (1892),  maintaining  those  established  con- 
tinuously and  it  now  ranks  third  in  number  of  such  organizations. 
But  one  Alliance  has  ever  suspended  its  sessions  and  that  is  now 
revived.  There  has  been  a  loss  of  but  one  Chapter,  Iota,  that  one 
having  been  installed  in  earlier  days  with  too  little  investigation 
of  local  conditions. 

From  two  solitary  seniors,  far  away  on  the  Atlantic  coast, 
for  an  Alpha  Chapter  of  a  new  sorority,  on  Nov.  28,  1888, 
there  has  been  an  advance  to  an  organization  consisting  of 
twenty- three  chapters  located  in  north  and  south  and  east  and

ber, 1906. 

With  a  loyalty  pledged  by  single,  double    and    triple    rites, 
over  fifteen  hundred  initiates  now  answe  •  to  the  national  roll  call 

of  DELTA  DELTA  DELTA.

Explanation :  This  comparison  of  relative  growth  in  the  first  six- 
teen years  after  founding  must  of  course  take  into  account  something 
of  the  differences  in  the  possibility  of  the  periods  during  which  the 
growth  took  place,  and  if  one  of  the  last  sixteen  years  in  the  history  of 
each  were  made  there  would  still  be  differences  of  opportunity  to  equalize.
